Ocean Floor around Antarctica - Atlas of the World, 11th Edition by National Geographic
Atlas of the World (11th Edition) | Antarctic Seafloor & Bathymetry | Physical Wall Map | Multiple Sizes | Premium Finishes
A rare and fascinating perspective on the hidden world beneath the Southern Ocean, Ocean Floor Around Antarctica reveals the dramatic contours of the seafloor encircling Antarctica. Published by National Geographic as part of the Atlas of the World, 11th Edition, this map uses advanced cartographic techniques to bring submarine landscapes into sharp, visual clarity.
From deep ocean trenches to vast underwater ridges, it offers a compelling view of a region few ever see—yet one that plays a critical role in Earth’s climate and ocean systems.
Why This Map Stands Out
A view beneath the surface
Maps the ocean floor surrounding Antarctica in exceptional detail.
Atlas-quality cartography
Derived from National Geographic’s authoritative 11th Edition.
Striking physical contrasts
Uses colour and shading to highlight underwater terrain.
Educational and unique
Perfect for teaching oceanography, geology, and environmental science.
A distinctive wall map
An uncommon subject that makes for a compelling display.
🌊 What the Map Shows
- The seafloor surrounding Antarctica and the Southern Ocean
- Major underwater features, including:
- Ocean basins and abyssal plains
- Mid-ocean ridges and submarine plateaus
- Trenches and continental shelves
- Bathymetric detail revealing depth and structure beneath the ocean
- A polar-centred perspective of the Southern Hemisphere
- A framework linking ocean depth, geology, and global systems
📐 Projection & Design
-
Projection: Azimuthal Equidistant (centred on the South Pole)
- Maintains accurate distances from the centre point
- Ideal for polar and hemispheric mapping
-
Style:
- High-contrast bathymetric shading
- Classic National Geographic colour palette
- Clean typography for clarity and accessibility
📐 Sizes & Format
Standard Size:
798 mm (W) × 610 mm (H)
Supermap Size:
1197 mm (W) × 915 mm (H)
Orientation: Landscape
Perfect for:
- Classrooms and STEM learning environments
- Universities and research spaces
- Offices and environmental planning settings
- Feature walls showcasing unique geographic themes
