Permafrost Research

Аннотация

"Problems connected with permafrost, the development of research in Canada and the United States in the last decade, and future research programs are discussed. The problems for research include: an accurate knowledge of permafrost distribution; correlation of permafrost with meteorological statistical studies; the performance of roads, airfields, and buildings in permafrost areas; physical and mechanical properties of frozen ground; and the origin of permafrost."--SIPRE.
