On the top there is a double peak stack high. The second-highest point Mountain of ''Robert-Johann'' in the southwest is named after Carl Koldewey's son Robert Koldewey. The island has no lakes but its single valley has a creek in the summer. The island belongs to the Russkaya Arktika National Park since 15 June 2009. There is the same arctic climate and flora as the "mother" island Salm but Koldewey is fully unglacierized. The sound between both islands is about deep. The island extends in two directions: in the north more dynamically with a longish steep cape and small islet Schoenau at the end, in the southwest very shallow, long flat bar cape with over underwater reef not deeper as , that connects with the glacierized side of the Salm Island. The middle peak of the large bank (temporarily named ''Siegfried-Elof Bar'') reaches just a meter and a half under the surface and lies in the Lavrov Sound opposite to the famous Cape Tegetthoff on the Hall Island. The Koldewey Island is named after Captain Carl Koldewey, leader of the second German expedition to Greenland and Spitsbergen in the late 19th century. ==Adjacent islands== Very close to Koldewey Island, off its northern point, lies one of the smallest islands: *Schönau Island, ''Ostrov Shœnau'' or ''Shyonau'' lies in the Lavrov Sound opposite to the ''Hall'' and ''Berghaus'' Islands. It is only 90 m across. 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「Koldewey Island」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
