Bungeleira

Bungeleira is a plain in Sørkapp Land at Spitsbergen, Svalbard. It is located south of Bungebreen and Plogen and north of Tørrflya. The plain is named after Russian Arctic explorer Alexandr Alexandrovich Bunge.[1] The river of Bungeelva flows from Bungevatnet and passes between Tørrflya and Bungeleira and the front of the glacier of Vitkovskijbreen.[2]
