Laut Amundsen


Laut Amundsen adalah sebuah bagian dari Samudra Selatan dari lepas pantai Tanah Marie Byrd di barat Antarktika, yang terbentang antara Tanjung Flying Fish (ujung barat laut Pulau Thurston) di timur dan Tanjung Dart di Pulau Siple di barat. Tanjung Ikan Terbang menandai perbatasan antara Laut Amundsen dan Laut Bellingshausen. Di barat Tanjung Dart, terdapat laut marginal tanpa nama dari Samudra Selatan antara Laut Amundsen dan Laut Ross. Ekspedisi Norwegia tahun 1928–1929 di bawah kepemimpinan Kapten Nils Larsen menamai wilayah perairan tersebut dengan nama penjelajah kutub Norwegia Roald Amundsen saat menjelajahi wilayah tersebut pada Februari 1929.[1]
