APPROACHES TO ENGINEERING GEOCRYOLOGICAL ZONATION OF THE REPUBLIC OF SAKHA (YAKUTIA)
This paper describes the engineering geocryological zoning of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) which was performed based on analysis of the main controlling factors and their cartographic generalization. Several schematic maps were compiled depicting topography (landforms), geocryological processes,...
