MARC recordThe influence of a simulated transport corridor on snowpack characteristics, Fort Norman, N.W.T., Canada / G. Peter Kershaw.
| Title: | The influence of a simulated transport corridor on snowpack characteristics, Fort Norman, N.W.T., Canada / G. Peter Kershaw. |
| Author(s): | Kershaw, G. Peter. |
| Date: | 1991. |
| In: | Arctic and Alpine Research. (1991.), Vol. 23(1) (1991) |
| Abstract: | Object was to determine amount of nature and change in snowpack characteristics after clearing linear corridor in sub-Arctic upland conifer forest. Alterations in snowpack affect its thermal properties and thus change soil and near-surface permafrost properties. Study site, which represented any cleared right-of-way (roads, pipe lines), was on north-facing slope underlain by permafrost. |
