Air Temperature and Thaw Depth, North Slope, Alaska: Field Measurements (1995-97) and Computed Values
This data product contains field data measurements of air temperatures and thaw depth (active-layer thickness) measured at locations in north-central Alaska, and modeled values of air temperatures and thaw depth extrapolated to an area encompassing the Kuparuk River basin of north-central Alaska.
