Establishment of Permafrost Thermal Monitoring Sites in East Siberia
Permafrost lies close to the surface of the day, therefore, it is able to quickly respond to modern climatic changes. Under these conditions, the goal of understanding the evolution of permafrost in the near future requires monitoring studies of the current state of permafrost and, first of all, its...

Permafrost lies close to the surface of the day, therefore, it is able to quickly respond to modern climatic changes.
