The application of an instrument for non-destructive measurements of soil temperature and resistance profiles at a high Arctic field site
An easily constructed and installed instrument for measuring colocated soil temperature and resistance profiles is described. Minimum disturbance to the soil structure is achieved. The system indicates the melting front of permafrost at a high Arctic field site and shows the effect and extent of sum...
