Monitoring the Thermal State of Permafrost (TSP) in Arctic Alaska using the DOI/GTN-P Deep Borehole Array
This project involves monitoring the thermal state of permafrost on the Arctic Slope of Alaska using the DOI/GTN-P Deep Borehole Array. The U.S. Geological Survey has been monitoring temperatures in this 24-element array since the holes were drilled in the early 1970s to early 1980s. Most of the wel...
