Daugaard-Jensen Glacier

Italy

The Daugaard-Jensen Glacier is a large glacier located on the southeast coast of Greenland. The glacier was first mapped in 1933 by Lauge Koch during aerial surveys made during the 1931–34 Three-year Expedition to East Greenland (Treårsekspeditionen). It is named in honour of Niels Daugaard-Jensen,

who was head of the Greenland department under the Danish Ministry of State and former governor (Landsfoged) of Northern Greenland.
