Uyedineniya Island (also Uedinenia, (ロシア語:Oстров Уединения); (ノルウェー語:Ensomheden)) is an island located in the central part of the Kara Sea, roughly midway between Novaya Zemlya and Severnaya Zemlya. Its latitude is 77° 29' N and its longitude 82° 30' E. It is often labelled as Einsamkeit Island (from the German ''Einsamkeit Insel'') and more rarely as Lonely Island or Solitude Island in English maps. ==Geography== The island is barren and icy throughout the winter months, but some tundra vegetation grows on it in the summer. Its length is 18.5 km and its total area is 20 km². Compared to other Arctic islands it is flat and low-lying, with some swamps and small lakes and a long spit of land on its NE side. Its highest point is only about 30 m. Owing to its extreme northerly location the weather is bleak and severe and the sea surrounding Uedineniya is covered with pack ice in the winter. Ice floes are commonly found even in the summer. The nearest landmasses are the Izvestiy TSIK Islands, located about 150 km to the SSE, while the distance to mainland Siberia to the SSE some 280 km and to the northern tip of Novaya Zemlya straight west about 340 km. Uyedineniya belongs to the Krasnoyarsk Krai administrative division of the Russian Federation. 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「Uyedineniya Island」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
