Named for Professor Richard Hindmarsh, a glaciologist and ice sheet modeller at the British Antarctic Survey for more than 25 years. Hindmarsh developed advanced numerical models of ice sheets, including Antarctica, and worked on modelling subglacial bedforms. He undertook a series of field campaigns with BAS and the US and New Zealand Antarctic Programmes, mainly focussing on radar measurements of ice rises and ice domes.
