DeBusk Scarp (69°23′S 62°57′W / 69.383°S 62.950°W) is a nearly vertical rock cliff, 2 nautical miles (4 km) long and rising to 300 metres (1,000 ft), at the south side of the mouth of Bingham Glacier, on the east coast of Palmer Land, Antarctica. This feature was photographed from the air in 1928 by Sir Hubert Wilkins, and again in 1940 by members of the United States Antarctic Service who also sledge surveyed along this coast. It was resighted by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE), 1947–48, under Finn Ronne, who named it after , executive secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, Beaumont, Texas, who was of assistance to the RARE in the preparation for the voyage south.

  • Das DeBusk Scarp ist ein steilwandiges, etwa 300 m hohes Felsenkliff von rund 3 km Länge an der Wilkins-Küste des Palmerlands auf der Antarktischen Halbinsel. Es ragt an der Südseite der Mündung des Bingham-Gletschers in das Larsen-Schelfeis auf. Hubert Wilkins fotografierte die Formation bei einem Überflug im Jahr 1928. Wissenschaftler der United States Antarctic Service Expedition (1939–1941) nahmen im Jahr 1940 eine Vermessung des Gebiets vor. Ein weiterer Besuch erfolgte im Rahmen der Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (1947–1948). Deren Leiter Finn Ronne benannte das Kliff nach Clarence Kizer DeBusk (1898–1950), Vertreter der Chamber of Commerce im texanischen Beaumont, der bei den Vorbereitungen der Ronne-Expedition behilflich war.
