Single Island

Single Island is a high ice-covered island on the west side of the Amery Ice Shelf, about 26 kilometres (14 nmi) south of Landon Promontory. It was first plotted by ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions) from air photos taken in 1956, but incorrectly shown as a promontory; later, it was mapped by ANARE as an island. It was named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for M. Single, senior diesel mechanic at Mawson Station in 1962, a member of the ANARE field party which visited the area in December 1962.^[1]

They were discovered from an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) aircraft in 1969, photographed from an ANARE aircraft in 1971, and named for R. Dodson, senior geologist with the ANARE Prince Charles Mountains survey in 1971.^[2][3]
