Philippi Rise (66°6′S 62°18′W / 66.100°S 62.300°W) is a low, snow-covered promontory 7 nautical miles (13 km) wide and extending some 10 nautical miles (18 km) southeast from the east coast of Graham Land. The ice surface is highest in the west, where it rises to about 395 m and is broken by Borchgrevink and Gemini Nunataks. The Swedish Antarctic Expedition under Nordenskjold, 1901–04, reported an ice wall or glacial terrace in the vicinity of Borchgrevink Nunatak. Although unable to determine its nature, Nordenskjold named the feature Philippigletscher, after . It was determined to be a snow-covered promontory by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) during their 1947 survey of this coast.

  • Philippi Rise (englisch, in Argentinien Alturas Philippi ‚Philippihöhen‘, in Chile Cumbres Philippi ‚Philippigipfel‘) ist eine vereiste und bis zu 395 m hohe Halbinsel, die sich in südöstlicher Ausdehnung an der Oskar-II.-Küste des Grahamlands auf der Antarktischen Halbinsel in das Weddell-Meer erstreckt. Die Eisdecke ragt im Westen der Halbinsel am höchsten auf und wird dort durch den Borchgrevink- und den Gemini-Nunatak durchbrochen. (de)

  • Philippi Rise (englisch, in Argentinien Alturas Philippi ‚Philippihöhen‘, in Chile Cumbres Philippi ‚Philippigipfel‘) ist eine vereiste und bis zu 395 m hohe Halbinsel, die sich in südöstlicher Ausdehnung an der Oskar-II.-Küste des Grahamlands auf der Antarktischen Halbinsel in das Weddell-Meer erstreckt. Die Eisdecke ragt im Westen der Halbinsel am höchsten auf und wird dort durch den Borchgrevink- und den Gemini-Nunatak durchbrochen. Beschrieben wurde sie erstmals durch Teilnehmer der Schwedischen Antarktisexpedition (1901–1903) unter Otto Nordenskjöld, wenngleich dabei ihre eigentliche Natur nicht aufgeklärt werden konnte. Nordenskjöld hielt die Formation für einen Gletscher und benannte sie nach dem deutschen Geologen Emil Philippi (1871–1910). Vermessungen des Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey im Jahr 1947 ergaben, dass es sich in Wirklichkeit um eine Halbinsel handelt. (de)
