Detroit Plateau (64°10′S 60°0′W / 64.167°S 60.000°W) is a major interior plateau of Graham Land, with heights between 1,500 and 1,800 metres (4,900 and 5,900 ft). Its northeast limit is marked by the south wall of Russell West Glacier, from which it extends some 90 miles (140 km) in a general southwest direction to Herbert Plateau. The plateau was observed from the air by Sir Hubert Wilkins on a flight of December 20, 1928. Wilkins named it Detroit Aviation Society Plateau after the society which aided in the organizing of his expedition but the shortened form of the original name is approved. The north and east sides of the plateau were charted by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1946–47.

  • Das Detroit-Plateau ist ein großes Hochplateau mit einer Höhe von 1500 m bis 1800 m inmitten des Grahamlands auf der Antarktischen Halbinsel. Am nordöstlichen Ende wird es begrenzt durch die Südflanke des Russell-West-Gletschers, von dem es sich über eine Strecke von rund 145 km in hauptsächlich südwestlicher Richtung bis zum Herbert-Plateau erstreckt. Entdeckt wurde es vom australischen Polarforscher Hubert Wilkins bei seinem Antarktisflug am 20. Dezember 1928. Wilkins benannte es Detroit Aviation Society Plateau nach der Gesellschaft, die seine Antarktisexpedition unterstützte. Später setzte sich der heute geläufige Name durch. Der Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey kartiere den nördlichen und östlichen Bereich des Plateaus von 1946 bis 1947. (de)
