Summary
|
Abstract:
This dataset includes ground temperature data from largely shallow (less than 20m depth) boreholes along the Norman Wells Pipeline corridor in the MacKenzie Valley and northern Alberta, collected since 1984. The data includes readings obtained manually up to 10 times per year.To look at the response of permafrost terrain and to anthropogenic and natural disturbances along the pipeline corridor.
