Remote sensing and field‐based mapping of permafrost distribution along the Alaska Highway corridor, interior Alaska

We employed an integrated approach that combined remote sensing techniques with field measurements to predict the presence/absence of near‐surface permafrost in a section of the Alaska Highway corridor. We investigated the correlative relationships among vegetation type, topography, moss thickness,...
