432:. Discovered on a sledge journey through the sound in December 1940 by Finn Ronne and Carl Eklund of the USAS, 1939–41, and named Ronne Bay. Since 1940, the head of the bay has receded eastward into George VI Sound, altering the relationships on which the name was based. The name was therefore changed to Ronne Entrance, in keeping with the physical characteristics of the feature. Named after the Ronne family, of which the father, Martin Ronne, was a member of the Norwegian expedition under Amundsen, 1910-12, and the ByrdAE, 1928-30; and the son, Finn Ronne (d.1980), was a member of the ByrdAE, 1933-35, and the USAS, 1939-41. Finn Ronne also served as leader of the RARE, 1947^48, and as military and scientific leader at Ellsworth Station during the IGY, 1957.

390:. Finn Ronne and Carl Eklund of the US AS (1939–41) sledged along the north side of this feature in December 1940. It was photographed from the air and first mapped as an island by the RARE (1947-48) under Finn Ronne. Named by Ronne for Gen. Carl Spaatz, Chief of Staff, United States ArmyAF, who gave assistance in providing an airplane for use of RARE.
470:. A broad glacier that drains the west-central part of Spaatz Island, at the south side of Ronne Entrance. Mapped by USGS from surveys and United States Navy aerial photographs, 1961-66. Named by US-ACAN for Lennie J. Hill, USGS Topographic Engineer, a member of the Marie Byrd Land Survey Party, 1967-68.
