Plummer, United States Antarctic Research Program (USARP) glaciologist at Palmer Station in 1965.
Field Glacier is a glacier on Pernik Peninsula, Loubet Coast in Graham Land, situated south of Salmon Cove, and flowing west into Lallemand Fjord just south of Kanchov Peak. It was mapped from air photos taken by the Falkland Islands and Dependencies Aerial Survey Expedition, 1956–57.

Field, an American glaciologist and surveyor, sometime Research Fellow of the American Geographical Society.

Mount Kershaw is a mountain, 1,180 metres (3,870 ft) high, rising above Jones Ice Shelf and Kosiba Wall in the northeast end of Blaiklock Island, off the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica.
