'''Mosby Glacier''' ({{coord|73|9|S|61|40|W|source:GNIS|display=inline,title}}) is a [[glacier]] {{Convert|5|nmi|km|0}} wide at its mouth, flowing in a southeasterly direction to the northwest corner of [[New Bedford Inlet]], on the east coast of [[Palmer Land]], Antarctica. It was discovered and photographed from the air in December 1940 by the [[United States Antarctic Service]]. During 1947 it was photographed from the air by the [[Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition]] under [[Finn Ronne]], who in conjunction with the [[Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey]] (FIDS) mapped its terminus from the ground. It was named by the FIDS for [[Hakon Mosby]], a Norwegian meteorologist and oceanographer.<ref name=gnis/> |
