Collins Glacier is a glacier about 11 nautical miles (20 km) wide at its confluence with the Mellor Glacier, which it feeds from the southwest, located north of Mount Newton in the Prince Charles Mountains of Antarctica. It was mapped by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions from air photos taken in 1956 and 1960, and named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for Neville Joseph Collins, senior diesel mechanic at Mawson Station, 1960.
The Scott Mountains are a large number of isolated peaks lying south of Amundsen Bay in Enderby Land of East Antarctica, Antarctica. Discovered on 13 January 1930 by the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition (BANZARE) under Sir Douglas Mawson. He named the feature Scott Range after Captain Robert Falcon Scott, Royal Navy. The term mountains is considered more appropriate because of the isolation of its individual features.
Sharp Glacier is a glacier flowing north to the head of Lallemand Fjord, close east of the Boyle Mountains, in Graham Land. Mapped by Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) from surveys and air photos, 1948-59. Named by United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) for Robert P. Sharp, American geologist who has undertaken numerous studies on glaciers and their flow.
Finsterwalder Glacier is a glacier on the northwest side of Hemimont Plateau, 2 nautical miles wide and 10 nautical miles long, flowing southwest from the central plateau of Graham Land, Antarctica, toward the head of Lallemand Fjord. Its mouth lies between the mouths of Haefeli Glacier and Klebelsberg Glacier, the three glaciers merging with Sharp Glacier where the latter enters the fjord. It was first surveyed from the plateau in 1946–47 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, and named by them for Sebastian Finsterwalder and his son, Richard Finsterwalder, German glaciologists.
Proclamation Island is a small rocky island 2.5 nautical miles west of Cape Batterbee and close east of the Aagaard Islands of Antarctica.
Posadowsky Glacier is a glacier about 9 nautical miles long, flowing north to Posadowsky Bay immediately east of Gaussberg. Posadowsky Bay is an open embayment, located just east of the West Ice Shelf and fronting on the Davis Sea in Kaiser Wilhelm II Land. Kaiser Wilhelm II Land is the part of East Antarctica lying between Cape Penck, at 87°43'E, and Cape Filchner, at 91°54'E, and is claimed by Australia as part of the Australian Antarctic Territory. Other notable geographic features in this area include Drygalski Island, located 45 mi NNE of Cape Filchner in the Davis Sea, and Mirny Station, a Russian scientific research station.
Walker Valley is a large, wide, snow-filled valley lying immediately west of Manning Massif in the Aramis Range, Prince Charles Mountains. Mapped from ANARE air photographs. Named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for K.G. Walker, expedition assistant with the ANARE Prince Charles Mountains survey party in 1970.
The Corry Rocks are a cluster of rocks at the north extremity of Gillock Island, in the Amery Ice Shelf. One of these rocks was occupied as an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions survey station in 1968. The group was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for M.J. Corry, leader and glaciologist of the Amery Ice Shelf party in 1968, who took part in the survey.
Deschampsia Point is a point on the northwest side of Signy Island, South Orkney Islands, 0.3 nautical miles (0.6 km) northeast of the Spindrift Rocks. It was descriptively named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1991, following British Antarctic Survey ecological research, after the Antarctic hair grass Deschampsia antarctica, which grows on the slopes near the point.
Transverse Island is an island between Fold Island and Keel Island on the east side of Stefansson Bay, off the coast of Enderby Land. Mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and named Tverrholmen. Seen by an ANARE party in 1956. The translated form of the name recommended by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) has been approved.
The Douglas Islands are two small islands 22 kilometres (12 nmi) northwest of Cape Daly, and 6 kilometres (3 nmi) north of Andersen Island, as well as 7 kilometres (4 nmi) north-east of Child Rocks, which are both part of the Robinson Group.. They were discovered by the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition under Mawson, 1929–31, and named for Vice-Admiral Percy Douglas, then Hydrographer of the Royal Navy. The islands were first sighted during an aircraft flight from the Discovery on Dec. 3 1, 1929, and reported to lie in about 66°40′S64°30′E, but after the 1931 voyage they were placed at 67°20′S63°32′E. In 1956, an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions sledge party led by P.W. Crohn was unable to find them in this position, but found two uncharted islands farther south to which the name has now been applied.
Cape Monakov is a cape on the west coast of Sakellari Peninsula, Enderby Land, Antarctica. The region was photographed by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions in 1956 and by the Soviet Antarctic Expedition in 1957. The cape was named by the Soviet expedition after S. Ye. Monakov, a Soviet polar aviator who perished in the Arctic.
Cape Fletcher is a minor projection of the ice-covered Antarctic coastline south of Martin Reef, midway between Strahan Glacier and Scullin Monolith. It was discovered by the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition, 1929–31, under Mawson, and named by him for H.O. Fletcher, assistant biologist with the expedition.
Flint Glacier is a glacier which flows south into Whirlwind Inlet between Demorest Glacier and Cape Northrop, on the east coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It was discovered by Sir Hubert Wilkins on his flight of December 20, 1928, and photographed from the air by the United States Antarctic Service in 1940. It was charted in 1947 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, who named it for glaciologist Richard F. Flint, professor of geology at Yale University.
Goldsworthy Ridge is a ridge extending north from Mount Henderson in the northeast part of the Framnes Mountains of Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for R.W. Goldsworthy, a survey field assistant with the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions in 1962.
Gråkammen Ridge is a mountainous ridge that includes Tambovskaya Peak and Mount Solov'yev, rising between the Gråhorna Peaks and Aurdalen Valley in the Westliche Petermann Range of the Wohlthat Mountains in Antarctica. It was discovered and plotted from air photos by the Third German Antarctic Expedition, 1938–39. It was replotted from air photos and surveys by the Sixth Norwegian Antarctic Expedition, 1956–60, and named Gråkammen.
Lovegrove Point is the north entrance point to Express Cove on the west side of Signy Island, South Orkney Islands, Antarctica. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after Ian W. Lovegrove of the British Antarctic Survey. He was general assistant, Rothera Station, 1981–84 and Base Commander, Signy Island, summers 1984–89.
Heywood Lake is the northernmost lake in Three Lakes Valley in northeastern Signy Island, Antarctica. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after Ronald B. Heywood, a limnologist with the Life Sciences Division of the British Antarctic Survey, who worked on Signy Island in 1962–63 and 1970–71.
McArthur Glacier is a glacier between the Christie Peaks and Swine Hill, flowing west from Palmer Land, Antarctica, into George VI Sound. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Alistair H. McArthur, a British Antarctic Survey geophysicist at Stonington Island, 1967–68.
Sloman Glacier is a glacier flowing between Mount Liotard and Mount Ditte to the southeast coast of Adelaide Island. Named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1963 for William O. Sloman, British Antarctic Survey Personnel Officer for a number of years beginning in 1956.
