Slichter Foreland (74°7′S 113°55′W / 74.117°S 113.917°W) is a high ice-covered peninsula, 15 nautical miles (28 km) long and 10 nautical miles (18 km) wide, forming the northeast arm of Martin Peninsula on the coast of Marie Byrd Land. First mapped from aerial photographs taken by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump in January 1947. Named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) after Louis B. Slichter, Professor Emeritus of Physics, University of California, Los Angeles, who has been involved with planning scientific programs for the South Pole Station, and who has trained a number of geophysicists who have gone to Antarctica to implement those programs.

dbo:abstract
  • Das Slichter Foreland ist eine vereiste, 24 km lange und 16 km breite Halbinsel an der Walgreen-Küste des westantarktischen Marie-Byrd-Lands. Sie bildet den nordöstlichen Seitenarm der Martin-Halbinsel. Der United States Geological Survey kartierte die Landspitze erstmals anhand von Luftaufnahmen der United States Navy bei der Operation Highjump (1946–1947) vom Januar 1947. Das Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names benannte sie nach dem US-amerikanischen Physiker Louis B. Slichter (1896–1978) von der University of California, Los Angeles, der mit der Ausarbeitung des wissenschaftlichen Programms für die Amundsen-Scott-Südpolstation und der Ausbildung einer Reihe dafür vorgesehener Geophysiker betraut war.
