Heim Glacier (Greenland)


Heim Glacier, is a glacier in eastern Greenland. It is named after Swiss geologist and glacial phenomena expert Albert Heim.

Geography

The Heim Glacier originates in the Eastern side of the Greenland Ice Sheet. It flows roughly southeastward about to the north of the Bruckner Glacier. It has its terminus in the eastern side of the head of Johan Petersen Fjord separated by nunataks from the terminus of the Bruckner Glacier to the east.
Together the Heim and Bruckner glaciers discharge icebergs into the inner part of the fjord.
