Mozart Ice Piedmont


Mozart Ice Piedmont is an ice piedmont, 60 nautical miles long-running in a NW-SE direction and 15 nautical miles wide in its widest part, on the west coast of Alexander Island, Antarctica. Mapped from air photos taken by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition in 1947, by Searle of the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1960. Named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, famous Austrian composer. Some landforms within this area are named in association with the Mozart Ice Piedmont such as Figaro Nunatak, along with a few other landforms.
