Stange Sound

Source 📝

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. 40: 56: 278: 349: 386:. A high ice-covered island, 50 nautical miles (93 km; 58 mi) long and 25 nautical miles (46 km; 29 mi) wide, lying close to the coast of Ellsworth Land, 30 nautical miles (56 km; 35 mi) east of Smyley Island. The north side of the island forms a portion of the south margin of Ronne Entrance. The remainder of the island is surrounded by the ice shelves of Stange Sound and 63: 807: 731: 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. 551:

A glacier flowing north between Lidke Ice Stream and Nikitin Glacier into Stange Sound. Named by US-ACAN (2006) after Dann V. Hall, United States Geological Survey (USGS) surveyor in support of the Ross Ice Shelf Project, 1976-77; team member, joint United States Geological Survey (USGS)-British
512:. Mapped by USGS from surveys and United States Navy aerial photographs, 1961-66. The ice stream was first visited by a USGS field party in January 1985. Named by US-ACAN after David J. Lidke, USGS geologist, a member of the party. 340:. The ice shelf in Stange Sound, English Coast, bounded to the east by Spaatz Island, to the northwest by Smyley Island, and to the west by fast ice in Carroll Inlet. Named in association with Stange Sound. 811: 735: 589:
A glacier flowing north into Stange Sound, English Coast, eastward of Lidke Ice Stream and an unnamed intervening glacier. Named by the USSR Academy of Sciences (1987) after
