Water–ice phase composition of undisturbed frozen ground samples obtained with a U.S. Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) core barrel at different depths in permafrost mounds at Kangiqsualujjuaq and Umiujaq in northern Quebec was measured in the field using an adiabatic cal...
