Morgan Inlet [SEP] continent
Morgan Inlet
Morgan Inlet is an ice-filled inlet about long, with two branches, indenting the east end of Thurston Island, Antarctica, between Lofgren Peninsula and Tierney Peninsula. The south side of the larger north arm of the inlet is an area of icy rock exposures called the King Cliffs. The east extremity of the wedge-shaped promontory between Lofgren Peninsula and Tierney Peninsula is called Ryan Point.
These features were discovered in helicopter flights from the U.S. Navy Bellingshausen Sea Expedition in February 1960, and was named
Hondius Inlet
Hondius Inlet (, ‘Zaliv Hondius’ \'za-liv 'hon-diy\) is the 5.7 km wide ice-filled inlet indenting for 6.7 km the tip of Joerg Peninsula, Bowman Coast on the Antarctic Peninsula southeast of Three Slice Nunatak. Its head is fed by Getman Ice Piedmont.
The feature is named after the Flemish cartographer Jodocus Hondius (Joost de Hondt, 1563-1612) whose 1595 map depicted the southern continent Terra Australis separated from both Tierra del Fuego and New Guinea.
