The discussion centers on two significant earthquakes that occurred in the South Sandwich Islands region on March 14, 2021. The first was a magnitude 6.0 quake, followed shortly by a magnitude 5.4 quake, both at a depth of 10.0 km. This area is typically quiet, raising interest in the seismic activity. Additionally, there were two aftershocks recorded, measuring magnitudes 4.7 and 5.5.
