Windless Bight at 77°42′ South, 167°40′ East, (See: https://www.waponline.it/windless-bight-field-camp-wap-usa-new/) is a low-wind area on the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica, famous for a permanent field camp that monitors infrasound for scientific and treaty-verification purposes. Named for the calm conditions encountered by early explorers, the area is now home to a scientific station operated by the CTBTO and a support camp with a team that stays for several weeks at a time, while also supporting research operations in the area
