Law Dome
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Law Dome ( ) is a large ice dome which rises to 1,395 m directly south of Cape Poinsett, Antarctica. The feature was roughly mapped by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) from aerial photographs taken by USN Operation Highjump, 1946-47. The dome has been the subject of intensive glaciological and geophysical surveys by ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions) between 1962 and 1965.
Law Dome is named by ANCA for Phillip G. Law, Director of the Antarctic Division, Australian Department of External Affairs from 1949 to 1966.
