The Rowe nunatakkers are a group of nunatakers on Black Island in the Antarctic Ross Archipelago . They rise 5 km northwest of Cape Beck in the southwest part of the island.
The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1999 after Charlotte Anne Rowe (* 1958) of the University of Alaska Fairbanks , who examined the volcanic and seismic activities of Mount Erebus on neighboring Ross Island in two Antarctic summer campaigns between 1984 and 1986 .
