Northeast Georgia Rise
The Northeast Georgia Rise is an oceanic plateau located in the South Atlantic Ocean northeast of South Georgia Island and west of the Falkland Plateau.
==Bathymetry==
The rise is separated from South Georgia Island by the Northeast Georgia Passage. The Georgia Basin surrounds the northern end of the rise.
The Agulhas-Falkland Fracture Zone (AFFZ) stretches across the Atlantic north of the Northeast Georgia Rise. A group of small seamounts north of the rise are aligned with a gap in the AFFZ. East of this gap the AFFZ is a single ridge with an average height of but west of the gap the AFFZ is a double ridge with an average height of .〔
On the eastern flank of the rise is a prominent ridge, the Soledad Ridge, about tall. It has the same orientation as the southeastern part of the rise. It is a basement-feature in which bottom-water have scoured a channel. Both the Northeast Georgia Rise and the Islas Orcadas Rise east of it, are seemingly dissected by transverse valleys that extend to the fracture zones of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
