Bruce Plateau (66°S 64°W / 66°S 64°W) is an ice-covered plateau, at least 90 nautical miles (170 km) long and about 1,830 metres (6,000 ft) high, extending northeast from the heads of Gould Glacier and Erskine Glacier to the vicinity of Flandres Bay, in Graham Land. It borders Avery Plateau on the south and Forbidden Plateau on the north. The first sighting of this plateau has not been ascertained, but it was presumably seen in January 1909 by members of the French Antarctic Expedition under Jean-Baptiste Charcot from their position in Pendleton Strait. The plateau was mapped from aerial photographs and from Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey surveys, 1946–62, and named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after William S. Bruce, a Scottish polar explorer and leader of the Scottis

| - Das Bruce-Plateau ist ein vereistes, 144 km langes und bis zu 1830 m hochgelegenes Hochplateau im Grahamland auf der Antarktischen Halbinsel. Es erstreckt sich vom Kopfende des Gould-Gletschers und des Erskine-Gletschers nach Nordosten bis in die Nähe der Flandernbucht. Vermutlicher Entdecker des Plateaus ist der französische Polarforscher Jean-Baptiste Charcot, Leiter der Fünften Französischen Antarktisexpedition (1908–1910), der es im Januar 1909 von der Pendleton-Straße aus erblickte. Die kartografische Erfassung nahm der Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey zwischen 1946 und 1962 anhand von Luftaufnahmen vor. Das UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee benannte das Plateau nach dem schottischen Polarforscher William Speirs Bruce (1867–1921). (de)
