A strait in eastern Hokkaido between the coastline of Shiretoko Peninsula and Nemuro Peninsula and Kunashiri Island. It is 20 to 30 kilometers wide, but the stretch between Cape Notsuke on the sandbar of Shibetsu Town and Cape Keramuy at the southern tip of Kunashiri Island is only 16 kilometers, and this stretch is also called the Notsuke Channel. The waters are rich in salmon, trout, crab, cod, and Atka mackerel, and fishing boats operate from Rausu Port, Shibetsu Port, and Nemuro Port, but Japanese fishing boats are occasionally seized by Russian patrol boats, making it a dangerous area. The waters are less than 50 meters deep, and it is said that during the ice age, the Notsuke Channel area was connected to the mainland.

北海道東部、知床半島(しれとこはんとう)から根室半島にかけての海岸線と国後島(くなしりとう)間の海峡。幅は20~30キロメートルであるが、標津(しべつ)町の砂嘴(さし)の野付(のつけ)崎と国後島南端のケラムイ崎間は16キロメートルにすぎず、この間は野付水道ともよばれる。海域にはサケ、マス、カニ、タラ、ホッケなどが豊富で、漁船は羅臼(らうす)港、標津港、根室港を基地として操業しているが、ときおりロシアの哨戒(しょうかい)艇によって日本の漁船が拿捕(だほ)され、危険な海域とされている。水深は50メートル以下で、氷河期には野付水道一帯は陸続きであったといわれている。 [進藤賢一] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
