Jacobsen Glacier (82°58′S 167°5′E / 82.967°S 167.083°E / -82.967; 167.083) is a glacier flowing east-northeast from Mount Reid, in the Holland Range, Antarctica, into the Ross Ice Shelf. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from Tellurometer surveys (1961–62) and Navy air photos (1960), and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for H. Jacobsen, Master of the USNS Chattahoochee during U.S. Navy Operation Deep Freeze 1964 and 1965.[1]
