Location of permafrost in marginal regions: Corral del Veleta, Sierra Nevada, Spain
Abstract This article discusses the methodology and techniques used in observations of permafrost, which is confined to a small enclave in south‐east Spain (Corral del Veleta, Sierra Nevada, 3398 m altitude, 37°03′ N, and 3°22′ W). Several geophysical, geothermal and geomorphologic prospecting techn...
