【内容摘要】St. Lawrence Island (Yupik:Sivuqaq) is located west of mainland Alaska in the Bering Sea, just south of the Bering Strait, at about 63°30' North 173°20' West. It is part of Alaska, but closer to Russia than to the Alaskan mainland. St. Lawrence Island is thought to be one of the last exposed portions of the land bridge that once joined Asia with North America during the Pleistocene period.[1] It is the sixth largest island in the United States and the 113th largest island in the world. The time on St. Lawrence Island is UTC-10, one hour earlier than Alaska Standard Time, with no daylight savings time.[2]
