The Gazetteer of Geographical Names of the Argentine Islands ─ the Kyiv Peninsula region (West Antarctica)

Edited by Andrii Fedchuk, Iryna Drohushevska, Hanna Yevchun, Valeria Savchenko, and Ivan Parnikoza

The handbook standardizes the (Ukrainian) geographical names of the region in which the yearly Ukrainian Antarctic expeditions take place (the Argentine Islands and the nearby islands of the Wilhelm Archipelago as well as the coastline of the Kyiv Peninsula in West Antarctica).

It is addressed to a wider specialist readership to unify the Ukrainian body of the Antarctic toponymy, to simplify the search for information for specific geographical objects, self-orienting during field studies, and preparing publications (including research papers).
