D’urville

a sea on the edge of the Antarctic Ocean, on the coast of Antarctica, between 136° and 148° E long. It lies off Adelie Coast. The southern part of the sea covers the continental shelf and has a depth of less than 500 m, whereas the northern part reaches a depth of 3,610 m. It is covered most of the year by drift ice and is dotted with icebergs. Its salinity is 33.7-33.8 parts per thousand. The sea was discovered in 1914 by an Australian expedition led by D. Mawson and was named in honor of J. Dumont d’Urville.
