Second, it analyses the temperature distributive rule in the active layer, meantime, according to the vertical-profile parameters of granularity, clay mineral, salt content and resistivities, it also discusses the different features of permafrost structure and their control actions on the periglacial landform development between high and low places. It suggests that the four-layer structure should exist in the permafrost region (including under-bedrock), that is, active layer, frost sand and gravels layer, frost volcanic rock permeated by sea water, and frost volcanic rock unpermeated by sea water. Finally, the permafrost table and its vertical gradient are deduced.展开更多

It suggests that the five layers should exist in the subsurface structure , namely, active layer, frost sand and gravel layer, frost volcanic rock permeated by sea water, frost volcanic rock unperme-ated by sea water, and unfrost ancient continental basement. Finally, the permafrost table and its vertical gradient are deduced.展开更多
