Ross Sea Region

This child group collects Glaciers of Antarctica members located in the Ross Sea sector: the McMurdo Sound area and McMurdo Dry Valleys, Victoria Land, the Ross Ice Shelf and Ross Island, the Transantarctic Mountains along this coast including the Churchill Mountains, and the wider Ross Dependency. This sector is one of the most intensively surveyed parts of Antarctica, close to the long-running United States and New Zealand research stations at McMurdo and Scott Base, which is why it carries a large share of the parent group's named glacier features even though it is only one coastal sector of the continent.
