Isbrecht Glacier

Glaciers and Ice Formations

Isbrecht Glacier is a small glacier in Antarctica that flows south from Thurston Island between Cox Glacier and Hale Glacier, at about 72 degrees 14 minutes south, 100 degrees 46 minutes west. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after JoAnn Isbrecht of the United States Geological Survey, a satellite image processing specialist who was part of the USGS team that compiled Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer maps of Antarctica and Landsat image maps of the Siple Coast area in the 1990s.
