dbo:abstract
  • Die Olsen Crags sind schroffe Kliffs in der antarktischen Ross Dependency. Im Königin-Maud-Gebirge überragen sie ein kleines, aber markantes Massiv an der Ostflanke des Amundsen-Gletschers unmittelbar nördlich des Epler-Gletschers. Der United States Geological Survey kartierte die Formation anhand eigener Vermessungen und Luftaufnahmen der United States Navy aus den Jahren von 1960 bis 1964. Das Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names benannte sie 1967 nach dem Norweger Karenius Olsen (1890–1973), Schiffskoch auf der Fram bei der Südpolexpedition (1910–1912) des norwegischen Polarforschers Roald Amundsen. Das Komitee wahrte damit die von Amundsen vorgenommene Benennung eines nicht identifizierbaren Bergs in der Umgebung der Kliffs als Mount K. Olsen. (de)

  • Gli Olsen Crags (in lingua inglese: Dirupi di Olsen), sono aspri dirupi (falesia) antartici, che sormontano un piccolo blocco montuoso che sporge sul fianco orientale del Ghiacciaio Amundsen subito a nord del Ghiacciaio Epler, nei Monti della Regina Maud, in Antartide. La falesia è stata mappata dall'United States Geological Survey (USGS) sulla base di rilevazioni e foto aeree scattate dalla U.S. Navy nel periodo 1960-64. La denominazione è stata assegnata dall'Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) in onore di Karinius Olsen, cuoco della Fram, la nave della spedizione antartica dell'esploratore polare norvegese Roald Amundsen del 1910-12. La denominazione conserva lo spirito dell'assegnazione fatta da Amundsen nel 1911 per un Monte K. Olsen, applicato a un monte non identificabile di quest'area. (it)
