Maury Glacier is a glacier 4 nautical miles (7 km) wide, flowing in an east-northeast direction to the southwest corner of Violante Inlet, on the east coast of Palmer Land, Antarctica. It was discovered and photographed from the air in December 1940 by members of the United States Antarctic Service. During 1947 the glacier was photographed from the air by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition, who in conjunction with the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) charted it from the ground. It was named by the FIDS for Matthew F. Maury, an American naval officer and hydrographer who was a distinguished promoter of maritime research and Antarctic exploration.

- Il ghiacciaio Maury (in inglese Maury Glacier) è un ghiacciaio lungo circa 7 km situato sulla costa di Black, nella parte orientale della Terra di Palmer, in Antartide. Il ghiacciaio, il cui punto più alto si trova 1.053 m s.l.m., fluisce in direzione est-nord-est fino ad entrare nell'angolo nord-occidentale dell'insenatura di Violante, andando così ad alimentare la piattaforma glaciale Larsen D.

- Maury Glacier är en glaciär i Antarktis. Den ligger i Västantarktis. Argentina, Chile och Storbritannien gör anspråk på området. Maury Glacier ligger 1 053 meter över havet. Terrängen runt Maury Glacier är kuperad, och sluttar brant österut. Den högsta punkten i närheten är 1 176 meter över havet, 1,0 kilometer norr om Maury Glacier. Trakten är obefolkad. Det finns inga samhällen i närheten. (sv)

| - Der Maury-Gletscher ist ein 6 km breiter Gletscher an der Black-Küste des Palmerlands auf der Antarktischen Halbinsel. Er fließt in ostnordöstlicher Richtung zum südwestlichen Abschnitt des Violante Inlet. Wissenschaftler der United States Antarctic Service Expedition (1939–1941) entdeckten und fotografierten ihn bei einem Überflug im Jahr 1940. Weitere Luftaufnahmen entstanden 1947 bei der Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (1947–1948) unter der Leitung des US-amerikanischen Polarforschers Finn Ronne. Gemeinsam mit dem Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) nahmen Wissenschaftler dieser Expedition eine Kartierung vor Ort vor. Der FIDS benannte den Gletscher nach dem US-amerikanischen Marineoffizier und Hydrographen Matthew Fontaine Maury (1806–1873), einem ausgewiesenen Förderer der Meeresforschung und der Erforschung Antarktikas.
