Field observations of moisture transfer through frozen soils at Mayo, Yukon Territory / Michael W. Smith, C.R. Burn.
Title: | Field observations of moisture transfer through frozen soils at Mayo, Yukon Territory / Michael W. Smith, C.R. Burn. |
Author(s): | Smith, Michael W. Burn, C. R. |
Date: | [1984-1985] |
Publisher: | [Ottawa, Ontario]: Carleton University, Geotechnical Science Laboratories |
In: | Investigation of permafrost and climate change - long term study phase 2; preliminary final report (1984-1985). ([1984-1985]), |
Abstract: | Ground temperature, moisture content profiles, and vapour outflow from frozen soil were measured over winter at two sites. At one site, where permafrost is present, vapour flow ceased by late March but it continued throughout season at other site where there is seasonal frost only. |
