الجزر النائية لنيوزيلندا

(تم التحويل من New Zealand outlying islands)

الجزر النائية لنيوزيلندا New Zealand outlying islands تتكون من تسع مجموعات من الجزر، تقع في subtropics and subantarctic, which are part of New Zealand but lie outside of the New Zealand continental shelf. Although considered as integral parts of New Zealand, seven of the nine island groups are not part of any region or district, but are instead designated as Area Outside Territorial Authority. The two exceptions are the Chatham Islands, which form a special territorial authority (island council) themselves, and the Solander Islands, which are part of the Southland Region and Southland District.

The term is also used sometimes to further encompass the Balleny Islands, a group of subantarctic islands technically considered part of Ross Dependency and covered by the Antarctic Treaty.

The five island groups of the New Zealand Subantarctic Islands, including their territorial seas, are a World Heritage Site.

The islands are all uninhabited except Chatham Islands. The remaining outlying islands are called Minor Islands.[بحاجة لمصدر]

There is a manned meteorological station on Raoul Island of the Kermadec Islands. The meteorological station on Campbell Island has been unmanned and automated since 1995. There was a meteorological station on the Auckland Islands from 1942 to 1945. The Three Kings Islands and the Auckland Islands were formerly inhabited. There have been failed settlement attempts on Raoul Island, the Antipodes Islands and the Auckland Islands. The Solander Islands have never been inhabited except by shipwrecked sailors or marooned stowaways (for the longest period, from 1808 to 1813 by five European stowaways).
