ABoVE: Soil Active Layer Thaw Depths at CRREL sites near Fairbanks, Alaska, 2014-2018

This dataset provides soil active layer thaw depth measurements collected along transects at three sites near Fairbanks, Alaska, USA. Measurements were made during the late summers of 2014-2018. The sites were located at Creamer's Field, the Permafrost Tunnel, and Farmer's Loop (two transects). Vegetation ecotypes along the transects are also reported. The US Army Corps of Engineers, Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) owns and operates facilities at the Permafrost Tunnel and Farmer's Loop. The sites are suitable for manipulation experiments, installing permanent equipment, and establishing long-term measurements.

本数据集收录了在美国阿拉斯加州费尔班克斯附近三个地点沿测线采集的土壤活性层融深测量数据。测量工作于2014至2018年间的晚夏期间进行。这些地点包括克里默尔场、永冻土隧道以及农民环路（两个测线）。同时，沿测线的植被生态型也被记录在案。美国陆军工程兵团冷地区研究及工程实验室（CRREL）拥有并运营永冻土隧道和农民环路的相关设施。这些地点适宜进行操控实验、安装永久性设备和建立长期监测。
