Novel sensor arrays provide high-accuracy depth-resolved measurements of snow and soil temperature and soil deformation, and open the door for the deployment of dense sensor networks.
Field measurements obtained over 5 days at the Seward Peninsula, AK field site. Left and middle panels show the displacement from permafrost thaw along the x and y-axis, respectively; right column shows the soil temperature. Highlighted in blue is the frozen part of the subsurface.
