It was discovered by the Western Base Party of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition (1911-1914) under Mawson and named for Capt. Robert F. Scott.
Princess Astrid Coast is that portion of the coast of Queen Maud Land lying between 5° and 20° E. The entire coast is bordered by ice shelves. Discovered by Capt. H. Halvorsen of the Sevilla (ship) in March 1931 and in 1932 named for Princess Astrid of Norway.
The Fallières Coast is that portion of the west coast of the Antarctic Peninsula between the head of Bourgeois Fjord and Cape Jeremy and lies on Marguerite Bay and the Wordie Ice Shelf. On the south it is joined by Rymill Coast, and in the north by Loubet Coast. Fallières Coast was first explored in January 1909 by the French Antarctic Expedition under J.B. Charcot, who named it for Armand Fallières, then President of France.
Utstikkar Glacier is a broad glacier flowing north from the vicinity of Moyes Peak in Antarctica and terminating in Utstikkar Glacier Tongue between Utstikkar Bay to the east and Allison Bay to the west. The glacier was mapped and named Utstikkarbreen by Norwegian cartographers working from aerial photographs taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition in January–February 1937.
The Adams Mountains are a small but well defined group of mountains in Queen Alexandra Range, bounded by the Beardmore, Berwick, Moody and Bingley Glaciers. Discovered by British Antarctic Expedition (1907–09) and named Adams Mountains for Lieutenant Jameson B. Adams, second in command of the expedition. The British Antarctic Expedition (1910–13) restricted the name to Mount Adams for a high peak in the group, but the original name and application are considered more apt and have been approved.
Prospect Glacier is a glacier between Kinnear Mountains and Mayer Hills, flowing north into Forster Ice Piedmont on the west coast of Antarctic Peninsula. It was first roughly surveyed in 1936 by the British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) under Rymill. In 1954 the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) gave the name Prospect Pass to a col between Eureka Glacier and the glacier here described. During resurvey of the area by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1958, the col was found to be an indeterminate feature, while this glacier is well marked and requires a name.
Lunde Glacier is a glacier about 25 nautical miles (46 km) long flowing northwest between Håhellerskarvet and Jøkulkyrkja Mountain in the Mühlig-Hofmann Mountains of Queen Maud Land. It is located in the Princess Astrid Coast of the Norwegian Antarctic Territory.
The Foyn Coast is that portion of the east coast of the Antarctic Peninsula between Cape Alexander and Cape Northrop. It was discovered in 1893 by a Norwegian expedition under Captain Carl Anton Larsen, who named it for Svend Foyn, a Norwegian whaler of Tønsberg whose invention of the grenade harpoon greatly facilitated modern whaling.
Bowin Glacier is a tributary glacier, 5 nautical miles (9 km) long, flowing northeast between Sullivan Ridge and Fulgham Ridge to enter Ramsey Glacier. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Commissaryman C.F. Bowin, U.S. Navy, Operation Deepfreeze, 1965 and 1966.
DeVries Glacier is a steep tributary glacier just east of Peckham Glacier, flowing from the south slopes of the Britannia Range into Byrd Glacier. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Arthur L. DeVries, a United States Antarctic Research Program biologist at McMurdo Station in the 1961–62 and 1963–64 summer seasons.
Discovery Glacier is a broad glacier, 9 nautical miles (17 km) long, between Hurricane Ridge and Mount Discovery on the Scott Coast, Victoria Land. The glacier flows north to coalesce with the eastern margin of lower Koettlitz Glacier. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (1999) in association with Mount Discovery, which Captain Robert Falcon Scott had named after the expedition ship of the British National Antarctic Expedition, 1901–04.
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.
Drew Cove is a cove indenting the west side of Mitchell Peninsula on the Budd Coast. It was first mapped from air photos taken by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump and Operation Windmill in 1947 and 1948, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Chief Construction Electrician John W. Drew, U.S. Navy, a member of the Wilkes Station party of 1958.
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.
Matthes Glacier is a glacier 9 nautical miles (17 km) long, flowing east into Whirlwind Inlet between Demorest Glacier and Chamberlin Glacier, on the east coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It was discovered by Sir Hubert Wilkins on a flight of December 20, 1928, and photographed from the air by the United States Antarctic Service in 1940. It was charted by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1947 and named for François E. Matthes, then chief geologist with the U.S. Geological Survey.
MacNamara Glacier is a glacier in the Patuxent Range of the Pensacola Mountains in Antarctica, draining northeastward between the Thomas Hills and Anderson Hills to Foundation Ice Stream. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1956–66, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Edlen E. MacNamara, a United States Antarctic Research Program exchange scientist at Molodezhnaya Station, winter 1967.
The Lachal Bluffs are a group of rocky headlands located just south of Ufs Island and east of Howard Bay, and about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) west of Allison Bay, on the Mawson Coast of Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. They were mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for R. Lachal, an assistant cook at Mawson Station, who acted as a geological field assistant, 1965.
