About: Nizki Island

An Entity of Type: island, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Nizki Island (Avayax̂ in Aleut; Russian: Низкий) is an uninhabited island in the Aleutian Islands in the U.S. state of Alaska. Located at 52°44′28″N 173°59′08″E / 52.74111°N 173.98556°E, it is the middle island of the Semichi Islands group of the Near Islands. Flanked by Shemya to the east and Alaid to the west, three-mile-long (5 km) Nizki is periodically joined to Alaid by a sand spit. The name is said to derive from the Russian nizkiy, meaning "low," a term descriptive of the island's topography, with a maximum elevation of 165 ft (50 m). Nizki's shoreline is very irregular and is fringed by numerous rocks, reefs, and kelp-marked shoals.

  • Nizki Island ist eine 5 km lange Insel in der Mitte der Semichi Islands, einer Untergruppe der Near Islands im äußersten Westen der Alëuten in Alaska. Im Westen der Insel liegt Alaid Island, von der sie durch eine Sandbank getrennt ist. Im Osten liegt Shemya Island mit den kleinen Inseln Hammerhead Island und Lotus Island, von denen sie durch die Meeresstraße Shemya Pass getrennt ist. Der Name stammt aus dem Russischen und bedeutet „flach“, was die Topographie der Insel gut beschreibt, denn die höchsten Erhebungen der Insel sind Jones mit einer Höhe von 51 m und Jack mit 47 m. Auf Nizki Island und dem benachbarten Alaid Island brüten wieder etwa 1000 Paare der früher beinahe ausgestorbenen (Branta hutchinsii leucopareia), einer Subspezies der Zwergkanadagans. (de)
  • Nizki es una isla perteneciente al archipiélago de las islas Near, en el grupo de las islas Aleutianas, al suroeste de Alaska. La isla se encuentra localizada en el medio del subgrupo de las islas Semichi. Flanqueada por las islas de Shemya al este y al oeste, Nizki mide 5 km de largo y se encuentra periódicamente unida a Alaid por una lengua de tierra. Se dice que el nombre de la isla deriva del ruso nizkiy, que significa "bajo", un término descriptivo para la topografía de la isla. Nizki es notoria por la población de gansos que alberga. Una de las especies de ganso fue dada por extinta hasta su avistamiento en Nizki. Actualmente, sin embargo, se considera amenazada. * Datos: Q1784697 (es)

Nizki's shoreline is very irregular and is fringed by numerous rocks, reefs, and kelp-marked shoals. Foxes were introduced to Nizki Island by Russian fur traders in the 19th century. This decimated the population of many bird species on the island. The last fox was removed from Nizki Island in 1976, and now Aleutian Canada Geese (once believed to be extinct), Puffins, and Aleutian Terns are common on the island. (en)
  • Nizki (Avayax̂ in aleutino) è un'isola disabitata amministrativamente controllata dallo Stato dell'Alaska (Stati Uniti). Si trova nel Mare di Bering, al centro del gruppo delle Isole Semichi, nell'arcipelago delle Aleutine. Lunga poco meno di 5 km, Nizki periodicamente è collegata alla vicina isola di Alaid da una sottile striscia di sabbia. Si ritiene che il nome dell'isola derivi dalla parola russa nizkiy, che significa "basso", a indicare la ridotta altitudine massima raggiunta dal territorio di Nizki (appena 50 metri sul livello del mare). La costa dell'isola è estremamente frastagliata, con numerosi scogli. Nel XIX secolo, i commercianti russi di pellame introdussero nella fauna locale alcuni esemplari di volpe artica, le quali decimarono alcune specie di volatili che nidificavano su Nizki. Nel 1976 l'ultima volpe fu portata via dall'isola e ciò ha consentito il ritorno in quest'area di alcune specie di uccelli, tra cui l'oca aleutina canadese, che si riteneva estinta. (it)

Ten oosten van het eiland - gescheiden door de Shemya Pass - ligt Shemya en ten westen ligt Alaid. Soms is Nizki verbonden met Alaid door middel van een schoorwal. Waarschijnlijk komt de naam Nizki van het Russische nizkiy, wat laag betekent. (nl)
