Notes on the use and performance of thermal instrumentation: experience from the Norman Wells pipeline ground temperature monitoring program / M.M. Burgess, V.S. Allen.
Title: | Notes on the use and performance of thermal instrumentation: experience from the Norman Wells pipeline ground temperature monitoring program / M.M. Burgess, V.S. Allen. |
Author(s): | Burgess, M. M. Allen, V. S. |
Date: | 1991. |
In: | Geological Survey of Canada. Paper. (1991.), Vol. 91-1E (1991) |
Abstract: | Presents selected statistical highlights of performance of instruments and data acquisition systems, outlining difficulties and recommendations for improvement. Installation in permafrost took place in 1984; in December 1990, 97% of sensors continue to function well and data recovery has been as high as 82% with only 6.4% loss due to logger failure or malfunction. |
