Geology and Properties of Materials Exposed in the USACRREL Permafrost Tunnel.

The U.S. Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (USA CRREL) permafrost tunnel near Fiarbanks, Alaska, was recently enlarged. A new winze and lower room were constructed in the tunnel, permitting examination of new silt exposures and previously unexposed, stratigraphically lower gravel...
