dbo:abstract
  • Largo Island ist eine langgestreckte Insel in der Gruppe der Duroch-Inseln westlich der Trinity-Halbinsel im Norden des Grahamlands auf der Antarktischen Halbinsel. Sie ist die Hauptinsel dieser Inselgruppe und liegt 1,5 km westlich des Halpern Point. Bei der 2. Chilenischen Antarktisexpedition (1947–1948) wurde das Objekt als drei einzelne Inseln identifiziert. Dies wurde durch Vermessungsarbeiten der geologischen Mannschaft um Martin Halpern von der University of Wisconsin zwischen 1961 und 1962 korrigiert. Halpern berichtete, dass chilenische Offizielle der Bernardo-O’Higgins-Station die Insel bereits zuvor deskriptiv (spanisch largo ‚lang‘) benannt hatten. Das Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names übertrug diese Benennung 1964 in einer Teilübersetzung ins Englische. (de)

Several rocks in the water off Largo Island have been charted and named by the Chilean Antarctic Expedition. Labbé Rock lies about 0.7 nautical miles (1.3 km) northwest of Largo Island. It is named for First Lieutenant , navigation officer of the transport ship Angamos. The Acuña Rocks, also known as Islote Acuña, are a pair of rocks lying 0.4 miles (0.6 km) west of Largo Island, named after Sub-Teniente Acuña, a member of the Chilean expedition. Vidaurre Rock breaks the surface at low water just 0.05 nautical miles (0.1 km) east of the main group of the Acuña Rocks. (en)
