East Jensen Island

About

MacMillan Island (Danish: MacMillan Ø), also known as East Jensen Island, is an uninhabited island of the Lincoln Sea in Peary Land, far northern Greenland. The island was formerly named after Danish zoologist Adolf Severin Jensen (1866 - 1953), professor at the University of Copenhagen, who had carried out extensive research on the fisheries of West Greenland, and who was a member of the committee of the 1931–34 Three-year Expedition (Treårsekspeditionen).
