Transantarctic Mountains

Mountain range in Antarctica

The Transantarctic Mountains (abbreviated TAM) comprise a mountain range of uplifted rock (primarily sedimentary) in Antarctica which extends, with some interruptions, across the continent from Cape Adare in northern Victoria Land to Coats Land. These mountains divide East and West Antarctica. They include a number of separately named mountain groups, which are often again subdivided into smaller ranges.
