Permafrost Temperature Monitoring System
System (GTOS) had identified active layer and permafrost thermal state in 1997 as two key cryospheric variables for monitoring in permafrost regions (WMO, 1997). In 1999, the Global Terrestrial Network for Permafrost (GTN-P) was established under the GTOS of the WMO. Since 1999, the International Pe...

| Summary: | System (GTOS) had identified active layer and permafrost thermal state in 1997 as two key cryospheric variables for monitoring in permafrost regions (WMO, 1997). In 1999, the Global Terrestrial Network for Permafrost (GTN-P) was established under the GTOS of the WMO. Since 1999, the International Permafrost Association’s ad hoc GTN-P committee has made considerable progress in organizing and implementing the GTN-P. An overview of the GTN-P program, its goals and establishment, activities and planned future steps was published in the summer of 2000 (Burgess et al., 2000). The last status |
