摘要:

Near Cape Chocolate, two streams fed by the Hobbs and Salmon*Because of duplication, Salmon Glacier is a new name proposed for the Davis Glacier of Taylor (1911), and others, by Mr G. Warren, Trans-Antarctic Expedition. The name has yet to be approved by the N.Z. Honorary Geographic Board. As a consequence of the change in name, the name Salmon Creek has been proposed instead of David Creek for the stream draining from Salmon Glacier. Hobbs Stream has been proposed for the meltwater stream draining from the Hobbs Glacier.Glaciers flow to a bay partly enclosed by a breached loop of an ice-cored terminal moraine of Hobbs Glacier. A hay-head delta constructed by the streams is diffed at its outer edge, and covers a marine bench which rises to a height of about 30 ft. Along the streams, between the delta and glaciers, are terraces cut in moraine and fluvioglacial sediments.
