geo.wikisort.org - IslandZykov Island (66°32′S 93°1′E) is a small island between Fulmar Island and Buromskiy Island in the Haswell Islands, near Queen Mary Land on Antarctica.[1] It was discovered and first mapped by the Australasian Antarctic Expedition under Douglas Mawson of 1911–14 but mistakenly identified as part of Fulmar Island.[2] Remapped by the Soviet expedition of 1956, it was named for Ye. Zykov, a student navigator who died in Antarctica on February 3, 1957.[3]
Research has been done around the island. Because of its remoteness, the undisturbed benthic zone of Zykov Island was studied from 1970 to 1972, with underwater dives and sample collections.[4][5] A decade later, the University of Canterbury studied Paramoera walkeri on Zykov Island and elsewhere in the Antarctic.[6]
