Thanks for creating this article - I was on the verge of doing so. I ran across M. Dunbar while working on the article on Fram Strait. Dunbar seems to have had the earliest use of this name for the strait (1973), adopting it from the Russian publications. I have no reference that Dunbar was first in using "Fram Strait" in English, there is just this early reference (cited on the Fram Strait article) explicitly stating the adoption of the name. Dunbar apparently learned Russian to read their scientific literature. Dunbar seems an impressive character. (The article needs a section "Book" listing the information about the book.)
