Symposium no. 43 Paper no. 86 Presentation: oral 86-1
Cryosols cover approximately 18 x 10 , or about 13% of the Earth's land surface. They occur in the permafrost zones in both the Northern Hemisphere and Antarctica as well as in some alpine regions. Cryosols are of global concern since it is predicted that both Polar Regions will experience a si...
