I would like information on a place called Queen Louisa Land. Unsure of spelling. It is a crater pit in the high arctic, surrounded by ice or glaciers, which is warmed, probably by geothermal activity, with a unique ecology including rare plants and flowers. |

do you perhaps mean Queen Maud Land in the Antarctic? |

Could it be "Dronning Louise Land" (Greenland), "dronning" being the Danish word for "queen")? e.g. "The Dronning Louise Land lay spread out before us to one side and the bleak endless icecap to the other": http://www.luhc-alumni.org/features/greenland/24_May.html http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Queen |
