Abstract

Describes a portable, battery-operated instrument designed to record long-term temperate variation of the permafrost. The four-part unit can operate unattended, on a one-hr/day basis for up to 240 days. Temperatures in four ranges from -25 to +25° C can be recorded at six depths with an accuracy of two percent of the range.
