MARC recordCryostratigraphic studies of permafrost, northwestern Canada / D.G. Harry, Hugh M. French.
| Title: | Cryostratigraphic studies of permafrost, northwestern Canada / D.G. Harry, Hugh M. French. |
| Author(s): | Harry, D. G. French, Hugh M. |
| Date: | 1988. |
| Publisher: | Trondheim: Tapir Publishers |
| In: | Permafrost. Fifth International Conference. August 2-5, 1988. Proceedings. (1988.), Vol. 1. |
| Abstract: | This approach to permafrost geology emphasizes ground ice, and dynamics of its aggradation and degradation, as integral component of geological record. In particular, stratigraphic evidence of palaeothermal and palaeohydrological conditions may be used to infer local and regional permafrost history. Studies at four sites in Canada illustrate principles of cryostratigraphy in relation to specific problems in permafrost geology. |
