Dalchev Cove

Dalchev Cove (Bulgarian: Далчев залив, ‘Dalchev Zaliv’ \'dal-chev 'za-liv\) is the 3.72 km wide cove indenting for 2.45 km the northwest coast of Parker Peninsula on the northeast coast Anvers Island in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. It is the part of Fournier Bay entered east of Studena Point, having its head fed by Altimir Glacier.

Location of Anvers Island in the Antarctic Peninsula region.

The cove is named after the Bulgarian sculptor Lyubomir Dalchev (1902-2002).

gollark: Well, it makes humans entirely unable to distinguish violet and purple objects, which GTech™ has actually used for [REDACTED].
gollark: The image is not* somehow lacking half the spectrum and/or weirdly colored.
gollark: That's CLEARLY just your eyes.
gollark: The output of such a detector may look something like this.
gollark: Gay/EM effects are actually the operating principle behind "gaydar": gay field interactions with charged particles creates electromagnetic radiation of a fairly widely sweeping range of frequencies, depending on exact field strength; with tuning of the energies of the input particles, you can ensure that this is within the visible spectrum and so detectable on a camera or something.
