Bolshoy Begichev ((ロシア語:Большой Бегичев)) is an island in the Laptev Sea, Russia. Its area is 1764 km². The island is situated within the Khatanga Gulf (Russian: Хатангский залив), splitting the gulf into two straits. A NAVTEX Coast Station used to be situated on the island at 74°32’.00 N, 112°02’.00 E.〔(Master Plan of the Shore-Based Facilities for the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (pdf) ) p81.〕 However, according to the current NAVTEX list the station is no longer listed.〔 〕 ==Adjacent Islands== *Only 8.5 km west of it lies the much smaller island known as Maliy Begichev Island. Its size is only 15 km sq. The border between administrative divisions of the Russian Federation runs between the two Begichev islands, so that while Maliy Begichev is in Krasnoyarsk Krai, Bolshoy Begichev is in the Sakha republic. Both islands are named after Russian polar explorer Nikifor Begichev. *North of Bolshoy Begichev lies small Preobrazheniya Island. This elongated granitic island was useful as a landmark for ships plying the Northern Sea Route in the past.〔William Barr (Arctic historian), ''The First Soviet Convoy to the Mouth of the Lena''.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bolshoy Begichev Island」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
