Splitwind Island : ウィキペディア英語版 | Splitwind Island
Splitwind Island () is an island 0.25 nautical miles (0.5 km) long, lying off the north end of Booth Island, in the Wilhelm Archipelago. Charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, and named by Charcot for Alphonse de Rothschild. To avoid confusion with Rothschild Island near Alexander Island, the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1959 recommended that the name be changed to Splitwind Island. Owing to some physical peculiarity, the wind south of this island is often very different from that north of it. == See also ==
