词条 | Weyerhaeuser Glacier |
释义 | Weyerhaeuser Glacier ({{coord|68|45|S|65|32|W|display=inline,title}}) is a large glacier flowing north into Mercator Ice Piedmont close west of Mobiloil Inlet, on the east coast of Antarctic Peninsula. This glacier lies in the area first explored from the air by Sir Hubert Wilkins in 1928 and Lincoln Ellsworth in 1935, but it was first clearly delineated in aerial photographs taken by the United States Antarctic Service (USAS) in 1940. The glacier was resighted in 1947 by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE) under Ronne. He named it for F. K. Weyerhaeuser, of the Weyerhaeuser Timber Co., who contributed lumber and insulating material to the expedition. {{usgs-gazetteer}}{{Portalbar|Antarctica|Geography}}{{Glaciers in the Antarctic}}{{Glaciers of Graham Land}}{{BowmanCoast-geo-stub}} 3 : Glaciers of Graham Land|Bowman Coast|Weyerhaeuser |
