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.

The Masson Range is a high broken chain of mountains, consisting primarily of the North Masson, Central Masson and South Masson Ranges and the Trilling Peaks, forming a part of the Framnes Mountains. Having several peaks over 1,000 metres (3,300 ft), the range extends in a north–south direction for 15 nautical miles (28 km). It was discovered and charted by the British Australian and New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition, 1929–31, under Douglas Mawson, and named for Professor Sir David Orme Masson, a member of the Advisory Committee for this expedition as well as the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911–14, also under Mawson. The mountains were first visited by an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions party led by John Béchervaise in 1956.
Anchorage Patch is a small, isolated shoal, the least depth of water over it being 11 metres, lying within Davis Anchorage, about 1 kilometre (0.5 nmi) northwest of the Torckler Rocks. The shoal was positioned by d'A. T. Gale, an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions surveyor aboard the Thala Dan in 1961.
The borders of the oceans are the limits of the Earth's oceanic waters. The definition and number of oceans can vary depending on the adopted criteria.
Church Glacier is a tributary glacier, 10 nautical miles (19 km) long, flowing southward along the west side of nearby Church Ridge to enter Leander Glacier northwest of Shadow Bluff, in the Admiralty Mountains, a major mountain range situated in Victoria Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and from U.S. Navy air photos, 1960–63, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Brooks D. Church, a laboratory management technician at McMurdo Station, Hut Point Peninsula, Ross Island, 1966–67 and 1967–68. The glacier lies on the Pennell Coast, a portion of Antarctica lying between Cape Williams and Cape Adare.
Entrance Shoal is a small shoal, with a least depth of 7.9 metres (26 ft), just west of Entrance Island at the northwest entrance to Horseshoe Harbour in Holme Bay, Mac. Robertson Land. It was charted in February 1961 by d'A.T. Gale, hydrographic surveyor with the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions, and so named because of its location.
Newman Shoal is a shoal at the southwest side of Davis Anchorage, just off the Vestfold Hills. The shoal has depths of 1 fathom or less and lies 0.1 nautical miles (0.2 km) southeast of Hobby Rocks. Charted during an ANARE hydrographic survey in 1961. Named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for A.J. Newman, senior diesel mechanic at Mawson Station in 1961, who assisted with the survey around Davis Station.
Werner Mountains is a group of mountains located just west-southwest of New Bedford Inlet and between the Meinardus and Bryan Glaciers, in Palmer Land. The mountains were first seen and photographed from the air by the United States Antarctic Service (USAS), 1939-41. Mapped by United States Geological Survey (USGS) from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1961-67. Named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for Abraham Gottlob Werner (1750–1819), German geologist and mineralogist.
The Krat Rocks are an area of submerged rocks with a least depth of about 1 metre (3 ft), lying at the west side of Davis Anchorage, 0.8 nautical miles (1.5 km) south of Bluff Island, off the Vestfold Hills, Ingrid Christensen Coast, Antarctica. The reef was delineated by d'A.T. Gale, an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions surveyor aboard the Thala Dan in 1961, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia after I. Krat, chief engineer on the Thala Dan.
Gurling Glacier is a glacier draining between Krebs Ridge and Leininger Peak into the southwest corner of Smith Inlet, on the east coast of Palmer Land, Antarctica. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after Paul William Gurling, a British Antarctic Survey surveyor who worked in the general vicinity of this feature. Paul was a BAS surveyor, Stonington Island.
Mount Trail is a mountain on the northeast side of Auster Glacier, at the head of Amundsen Bay in Enderby Land. It was plotted from air photos taken from ANARE aircraft in 1956 and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for D.S. Trail, a geologist at Mawson Station in 1961.
Møller Bank is a submerged bank, with least depth of 32 metres (105 ft), at the northern end of Kista Strait, 1 nautical mile (2 km) west of Welch Island, and just east of Carstens Shoal, in Holme Bay, Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. It was charted in February 1961 by d'A.T. Gale, a hydrographic surveyor with the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for J. Wennerberg Møller, third mate on the Thala Dan in 1961, who assisted in the hydrographic survey.
Cape Granat is a cape in the western part of the Thala Hills, 7 nautical miles (13 km) northeast of Campbell Glacier, on the coast of Enderby Land, Antarctica. Molodezhnaya Station is just south of the cape. This feature was mapped and called "Mys Granat" by the Soviet Antarctic Expedition, 1961–62.
Kista Strait is a strait between the Flat Islands and Jocelyn Islands in Holme Bay, Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37. The strait was first navigated by the site on which Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) established Mawson Station.
Thorp Ridges is a three almost parallel ridges standing 18 nautical miles (33 km) west of Stor Hanakken Mountain in Enderby Land. Plotted from air photos taken from ANARE aircraft in 1956. Named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for A. Thorp, electrical fitter at Wilkes Station in 1961.
