Clark Peninsula : ウィキペディア英語版 | Clark Peninsula Clark Peninsula is a rocky peninsula, about long and wide, lying 5 km north-east of Australia's Casey Station at the north side of Newcomb Bay on the Budd Coast of Wilkes Land in Antarctica. ==History== The peninsula was first mapped from aerial photographs taken by the US Navy's Operation Highjump in February 1947 and thought to be an island connected by a steep snow ramp to the continental ice overlying Budd Coast. The term peninsula was considered more appropriate by the Wilkes Station party of 1957 whose headquarters were on this peninsula. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Captain John E. Clark, captain of the USS ''Currituck'', seaplane tender and flagship of the western task group of Operation Highjump, Task Force 68, 1946–47.
