Marshall Stream

Marshall Stream (78°4′S 164°19′E) is a meltwater stream in Victoria Land, Antarctica. It is about 6 nautical miles (11 km) long and flows through the Marshall Valley from the Rivard Glacier to the Koettlitz Glacier. The stream was observed by Troy L. Pewe, a glacial geologist with U.S. Navy Operation Deep Freeze, 1957–58, and the name was applied by the New Zealand Antarctic Place-Names Committee and the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names in consultation, and derives from its location in Marshall Valley.[1]
