Effect of vegetation cover on the ground thermal regime of wooded and non-wooded palsas / Mélanie Jean, Serge Payette.
Title: | Effect of vegetation cover on the ground thermal regime of wooded and non-wooded palsas / Mélanie Jean, Serge Payette. |
Author(s): | Jean, Mélanie. Payette, Serge. |
Date: | 2014. |
In: | Permafrost and Periglacial Processes. (2014.), Vol. 25(4) (2014) |
Abstract: | Examines influence of vegetation on soil thermal regime of wooded palsas covered by black spruce trees and non-wooded palsas covered by shrubs in discontinuous permafrost of Boniface River area of northern Quebec, Canada. Investigates effects of organic layer thickness, vegetation and snow depth on soil temperature at 50 cm and 100 cm depths in 2009 and 2010. Wooded palsas reduce permafrost stability through snow trapping and lateral heat transfer. |
