Ostrvo Princ od Velsa (engl. Prince of Wales Island) je kanadsko arktičko ostrvo u kanadskom arktičkom arhipelagu.[1][2][3] Nalazi se između ostrva Viktorija na zapadu, Samerset na istoku, i južno od ostrva kraljice Elizabete.

Ostrvo nema stalnih naselja i stanovnika. Ima površinu od 33 339 km², što ga čini desetim kanadskim ostrvom po veličini[4][5] i četrdesetim na svetu. Ima najveću visinu od 320 metara, u severoistočnom kraju ostrva.

Prvi Evropljanin koji ga je otkrio bio je Fransis Leopold Mek Klintok[6][7] 1851. na sankama tokom potrage za izgubljenom ekspedicijom Džona Frenklina.[8][9][10]

To je nisko ostrvo prekriveno tundrom sa nepravilnom obalom duboko razvedenom zalivom Omani na zapadu i zalivom Braun na istoku. Zaliv Omani je dobio ime po admiralu ser Erazmu Omanijeju[11][12] iz Kraljevske mornarice koji je istraživao ovo područje u okviru potrage za ekspedicijom Frenklin.

Njegova površina je procenjena na 33.339 km2 (12.872 sq mi). Ostrvo Princa od Velsa je 40. po veličini ostrvo na svetu i 10. po veličini u Kanadi. Njegova najviša poznata tačka — sa nadmorskom visinom od 424 m (1.391 ft) — je neimenovano mesto na 73° 48′ 26″ N 97° 50′ 14″ W / 73.80722° S; 97.83722° Z / 73.80722; -97.83722 (Unnamed peak (Prince of Wales Island)) na krajnjem severoistočnom kraju ostrva,[13] sa pogledom na Baringov kanal koji odvaja ostrvo od obližnjeg ostrva Rasel.[14][15]

Istorija[uredi | uredi izvor]

Polarni medved[16][17] na ledenoj santi u Frenklinovom moreuzu[18][19] istočno od ostrva Princa od Velsa u septembru 2019. godine; krvavi trag pokazuje da je njegov plen vučen preko sante.

Do evropskog otkrića ovog ostrva je došlo 1851. godine prolaskom konvoja na sankama Frensisa Leopolda Maklintoka tokom potrage za poslednjom ekspedicijom Džona Frenklina.[20] Maklintok je zajedno sa Šerardom Ozbornom[21][22][23][24] i Vilijamom Braunom zacrtao severnu polovinu ostrva. Njenu južnu polovinu mapirao je Alen Jang 1859. godine.[25] Ime je dobilo po Albertu Edvardu, najstarijem sinu kraljice Viktorije, tada desetogodišnjem i princu od Velsa. Kasnije je postao kralj Edvard VII.
