Eros Glacier (71°18′S 68°20′W / 71.300°S 68.333°W) is a glacier on the east coast of Alexander Island, Antarctica, 7 nautical miles (13 km) long and 2 nautical miles (4 km) wide at its mouth, flowing southeast from the Planet Heights into George VI Sound immediately north of Fossil Bluff. It was probably first seen on November 23, 1935, by Lincoln Ellsworth, who flew directly over the glacier and obtained photos of features north and south of it. The mouth of the glacier was observed and positioned by the British Graham Land Expedition in 1936 and the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1948 and 1949. The glacier was mapped in detail from air photos taken by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition, 1947–48, by of the FIDS in 1960. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names

dbo:abstract
  • Der Eros-Gletscher ist ein 11 km langer und an seiner Mündung 3 km breiter Gletscher an der Ostküste Alexander-I.-Insel westlich der Antarktischen Halbinsel. Er fließt von den Planet Heights in südöstlicher Richtung zum George-VI-Sund, den er unmittelbar nördlich des Fossil Bluff erreicht. Wahrscheinlich sichtete ihn erstmals der US-amerikanische Polarforscher Lincoln Ellsworth bei seinem Transantarktisflug am 23. November 1935. Ellsworth flog direkt über ihn hinweg und fertigte Luftaufnahmen von Objekten nördlich und südlich des Gletschers an. Die Mündung erkundeten und kartierten 1936 Teilnehmer der British Graham Land Expedition (1934–1937) unter der Leitung des australischen Polarforschers John Rymill. Der Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) wiederholte dies 1948 und 1949. Eine detaillierte Kartierung nahm der britische Geograph Derek Searle vom FIDS 1960 anhand von Luftaufnahmen der US-amerikanischen Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (1947–1948) vor. Das UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee benannte ihn 1961 in Verbindung mit der Benennung des Pluto- und des Uranus-Gletschers nach dem Asteroiden (433) Eros. (de)

  • Il ghiacciaio Eros è un ghiacciaio lungo circa 13 km e largo 4, situato sulla costa orientale dell'isola Alessandro I, al largo della costa della Terra di Palmer, in Antartide. Il ghiacciaio, il cui punto più alto si trova a oltre 400 m s.l.m., si trova nella parte centrale delle cime Pianeta, da dove fluisce verso sud-est fino ad andare ad alimentare la piattaforma di ghiaccio Giorgio VI, che ricopre l'omonimo canale, poco a nord della stazione di rifornimento di .

  • Eros Glacier är en glaciär i Antarktis. Den ligger i Västantarktis. Argentina, Chile och Storbritannien gör anspråk på området. Eros Glacier ligger 405 meter över havet. Terrängen runt Eros Glacier är lite bergig, och sluttar österut. Den högsta punkten i närheten är Aeolus Ridge, 1 300 meter över havet, 6,4 kilometer sydväst om Eros Glacier. Trakten är obefolkad. Det finns inga samhällen i närheten. (sv)
