Dahe Glacier


Dahe Glacier is a glacier flowing northeast between Stone Ridge and Wise Ridge in the Saint Johns Range of Victoria Land. It terminates as a hanging glacier on a bluff 200 m above the head of the Debenham Glacier. Named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names in 2005 after Qin Dahe, Director of the China Meteorological Administration; manager of the Great Wall Station for two years in the 1980s; co-author of studies on distribution, transport and range of chemicals recovered from surface snow and ice cores in traverses from Zhongshan Station to Dome Argus, 1996–2002.
