I'm here to exhaustively catalog the unique science experiments that can be performed in KSP2, in parallel with the missions
Research and ScienceExperiments assets list the following experiments:
- AtmosphereSurvey
- CrewObservation
- CrewReport
- EnvironmentSurvey
- MarineSurvey
- OrbitalSurvey
- RadiationObservation
- SurfaceSurvey
Atmosphere, Environment, Marine, Orbital and Radiation require the corresponding science items to be unlocked
I have yet to determine what, if anything, triggers the Crew Report entries.
celestialbodies_science_assets lists the following orbital info (altitudes in meters):

Following up on original areas, I've directly warped to the coordinates of the glacier lake and see no sign of it.
Attempting to land near it, it does sound like some unique music is fading in but even warping in at altitude and landing does not show the unique science area folks have noted.
I would assume it would be a point/radius (like KSC) rather than an area. So it would seem it has not actually been implemented, meaning unique science isn't possible for it.
