Doppler Nunatak is a nunatak, an exposed rock formation, lying southwest of Mount Mende in the Sky-Hi Nunataks of Palmer Land, part of the British Antarctic Territory.

This nunatak was named by the Americans, the name chosen by the 'Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names' in 1987 after Christian Doppler, an Austrian scientist who discovered the Doppler effect in physics.
