Relict permafrost presents an ideal opportunity to understand the impacts of climatic warming on the ground thermal regime since it is characterized by a mean annual ground temperature close to 0 ∘ C and relatively thin permafrost. The long-term and continuous observations of permafrost thermal stat...
