Koner Island (original) (raw)
Koner Island (Norwegian: Konerøya) is a minor island in the Bastian Islands in the Svalbard archipelago. It lies east of Wilhelm Island and northeast of Spitsbergen. The island is elongated, measuring 1.5 kilometers (0.93 mi) in a north-south direction and no more than 200 meters (660 ft) in width. The island is a low basalt cliff that reaches an elevation of only 27 meters (89 ft) above sea level. The closest neighboring islands are Lange Island about 4 kilometers (2.5 mi) to the northwest and Geographer Island about 2 kilometers (1.2 mi) to the south. The wildlife consists largely of polar bears.

dbo:abstract | Koner Island (Norwegian: Konerøya) is a minor island in the Bastian Islands in the Svalbard archipelago. It lies east of Wilhelm Island and northeast of Spitsbergen. The island is elongated, measuring 1.5 kilometers (0.93 mi) in a north-south direction and no more than 200 meters (660 ft) in width. The island is a low basalt cliff that reaches an elevation of only 27 meters (89 ft) above sea level. The closest neighboring islands are Lange Island about 4 kilometers (2.5 mi) to the northwest and Geographer Island about 2 kilometers (1.2 mi) to the south. The wildlife consists largely of polar bears. The Bastian Islands were discovered in 1867 by the Swedish-Norwegian polar explorer Nils Fredrik Rønnbeck, who was the first to sail around Spitsbergen. Most of the Bastian Islands were named during the First German North Polar Expedition in 1868, led by Carl Koldewey. This island is named after the German geographer (1817–1887). (en) Konerøya est une petite île du Svalbard dans le Détroit d'Hinlopen. Elle fait partie de l'archipel des Bastianøyane. L'île est une longue bande rocheuse d'environ 1,5 km de long, orientée nord-ouest sud-est, sur 200 m de large. Les îles les plus proches sont celles de Geograføya, située 2 km au sud et Langeøya située 4 km au nord-ouest. L'île a été nommée lors de la première expédition polaire allemande en 1868. Elle doit son nom au géographe allemand Wilhelm Koner La faune de l'île se résume principalement aux ours polaires. * Portail de la Norvège * Portail du monde insulaire * Portail de l’Arctique (fr) |
