Summary
Abstract: DURING THE AUSTRAL SUMMER 2001-2002 WAS PERFORMED RESEARCH AND FIELD WORK
RELATED TO DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A DAM IN ZONE OF CONTINUOUS PERMAFROST IN
THE VICINITY OF ESPERANZA STATION, ANTARCTIC PENINSULA. THE GEOTECHNICAL AND
GEOCRYOGENICAL PARAMETERS OF THIS SECTOR ARE TYPICAL FOR CONTINUOUS ICE-RICH
PERMAFROST, WITH MEAN ANNUAL SOIL TEMPERATURE OF ABOUT -3.5°C.
