Around the worldStarting at the Prime Meridian and heading eastwards, the parallel 47° south passes through: 48th parallel south48th parallel south The 48th parallel south is a circle of latitude that is 48 degrees south of the Earth's equatorial plane. It crosses the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Pacific Ocean and South America. At this latitude the sun is visible for 16 hours, 3 minutes during the December solstice and 8 hours, 22 minutes during the June solstice.[3] If the latitude in the southern hemisphere is 48º50' or smaller, it is possible to view both astronomical dawn and dusk every day of the month of January.

It crosses the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Pacific Ocean and South America. At this latitude the sun is visible for 16 hours, 13 minutes during the December solstice and 8 hours, 14 minutes during the June solstice.[4] Around the worldStarting at the Prime Meridian and heading eastwards, the parallel 49° south passes through: 50th parallel south50th parallel south The 50th parallel south is a circle of latitude that is 50 degrees south of the Earth's equatorial plane. It crosses the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Pacific Ocean and South America. At this latitude the sun is visible for 16 hours, 23 minutes during the December solstice and 8 hours, 4 minutes during the June solstice.[5] On December 21, the sun is at 63.44 degrees in the sky and on June 21, the sun is at 16.56 degrees in the sky.
