Gamburtsev Mountain Range
The Gamburtsev Mountain Range (also known as the Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains) is a subglacial mountain range located in East Antarctica, at the Dome A area, near the Pole of Inaccessibility. The range was discovered by the 3rd Soviet Antarctic Expedition in 1958 and is named for Soviet geophysicist Grigoriy A. Gamburtsev. It is approximately long, and the mountains are believed to be about high, although they are completely covered by over of ice and snow. The Gamburtsev Mountain Range is currently believed to be about the same size as the European Alps,〔 and, as of 2008, it is unknown how the mountains were formed, though the current speculated age of the range is over 34 million years〔(The Gamburtsev mountains and the origin and early evolution of the Antarctic Ice Sheet ), Sun Bo, Martin J. Siegert, Simon M. Mudd, David Sugden, Shuji Fujita, Cui Xiangbin, Jiang Yunyun, Tang Xueyuan & Li Yuansheng; Nature magazine 459, 690-693 (2009-06-04), accessed 2009-06-09〕 and possibly 500 million years.〔 Current models suggest that the East Antarctic ice sheet was formed from the glaciers that began sliding down the Gamburtsev range at the end of the Eocene.〔 Vostok Subglacial Highlands form an east extension of Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains.〔(Vostok Subglacial Highlands: Antarctica ) geographic.org〕

As part of the 2007–09 International Polar Year, so called, the AGAP project was a multinational effort to gather information about the Gamburtsev mountain chain.
