520 |a"In summer 2016, ground temperature data were collected from 14 instrumented boreholes along the Alaska Highway corridor between Haines Junction and the Alaska border in order to improve characterization of permafrost conditions. This information is required for terrain sensitivity assessments and planning northern development (eg. pipeline, highway) to ensure infrastructure and environmental integrity. Data collected, in collaboration with the Yukon Research Centre and University of Ottawa, provided a one-year record of ground temperatures and extended existing time series. Although permafrost in this section of the corridor is generally warm (>-1°C), permafrost with temperatures as low -3°C was found near the Alaska border"--Summary provided by publisher.
