==Glaciology== | |||
The Bakutis Coast shows two main glaciological features: narrow fringing ice shelves and the Thwaites Glacier system. Twenty seven named and 14 unnamed outlet glaciers and ice streams flow into the ice shelves or into the [[Amundsen Sea]]. There are three other named glaciers which do not empty into any oceans which are located interiorly. | |||
