Ground temperature in natural conditions along the Alaska Highway at the Beaver Creek Road Experimental Site, Yukon, Canada

This dataset comes from a borehole located along the Alaska Highway at the Beaver Creek Road Experimental Site (BC-RES), Yukon, Canada. Measurements were made every 4h (thermistor sensors) from 0.3 to 8.0 m depth from 2 October 2008 to 27 October 2020. The site is composed of peaty silt and silty sediments down to 10 m (bottom of borehole) with facies of ice-rich permafrost (~1-3 m and ~6-10 m) separated by an ice-poor layer (~3-6 m).
