(Askeri) TİYALİN GENİŞLEMESİ: Tiyalin, mevcut iklim şartları altında, tabii veya suni nedenlerle genişlemesi. Bunun aksi "degradation of permafrost"- Tiyalin azalması" dır
degradation of permafrost
(Askeri) TİYALİN AZALMASI: Tiyal tabakasının, tabii veya suni sebepler yüzünden azalması. Bak. "permafrost"
thermal regime of permafrost
(Askeri) TİYALİN ISI REJİMİ: Müdahale edilmemiş olan alt kısmında tiyal. tabakası bulunan bölgelerde, tabiatın bütün faktörler arasında meydana getirdiği denge hali. Bitkilerin yok edilmesi, toprakta kazılar yapılması veya tali drenajlarla toprak suyunun akışını değiştirme keyfiyeti, bu dengenin zamanla az veya çok bozulmasına sebep olan faktörlerdir

Permanently frozen ground, or a specific layer thereof

Nevertheless, the water molecule is present, as ice, in a solid form in frozen soils or permafrosts, which cover large regions characterised by a polar climate.

Any rock or soil material that has remained below 32½F continuously for two or more years
Permanently frozen ground; generally refers to a layer at some depth below the soil surface Persists over at least two consecutive winters and the intervening summer A layer above it, which thaws in summer, is the active layer
a layer of soil at varying depths below the surface in which the temperature has remained below freezing continuously from a few to several thousands of years
permanently frozen ground
Soil or other earth material with a temperature that remains below 32 degrees Fahrenheit for two or more years
a soil layer below the surface of tundra regions that remains frozen permanently
Subsoil which remains below freezing point throughout the year, as in polar regions
Ground that has a temperature of below 0°C for more than two years The ground may or may not contain ice The Mackenzie Delta is located within the Continuous Permafrost Zone However, permafrost often does not occur below the channels or lakes in the delta
Perennially frozen ground that occurs wherever the temperature remains below 0° C for several years (Source: Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center, 1990)
Permafrost is land that is permanently frozen to a great depth. a layer of soil that is always frozen in countries where it is very cold (permanent + frost). Perennially frozen earth, with a temperature below 32 °F (0 °C) continuously for two years or more. Permafrost is estimated to underlie 20% of the Earth's land surface and reaches depths of 5,000 ft (1,500 m) in northern Siberia. It occurs in 85% of Alaska, more than half of Russia and Canada, and probably all of Antarctica. Permafrost has a significant effect on plant and animal life, and it presents special problems in engineering projects. All land use in permafrost environments must take into account the terrain's special sensitivity; if the delicate natural balance is not maintained, extensive degradation and ecological damage may result
A permanently frozen layer of soil that underlies the arctic tundra
Permanently-frozen subsoil
A permanently frozen layer at variable depth below the surface in frigid regions of a planet (as Earth)
Zone of permanently frozen water found in high latitude soils and sediments
Permanently frozen regolith, ranging in thickness from 30 centimeters to over 1000 meters
Subsoil that remains frozen year round
Layer of permanently frozen water ice believed to lie just under the surface of Mars
Permanently frozen rock and soil that is widespread in the Arctic north of 50°N latitude; permafrost is either continuous or discontinuous See also continuous permafrost; discontinuous permafrost
Soil conditions prevailing in area whose mean annual temperature is 0o C
Land that remains at or below zero degrees Celsius continuously for at least 2 consecutive years Permafrost is not defined by soil moisture content, overlying snow cover, or location; but is defined solely by temperature Permafrost may contain over 30 percent ice, or essentially no ice at all It can be covered by several meters of snow, or be completely bare of snow Underground, permafrost consists of frozen soils ranging from gravel to silt Silty soil is composed of fine, powdery sedimentary particles They possess great "wicking" capabilities that enable water to migrate and accumulate as large bodies of ice in the permanently frozen silt Two main areas of permafrost are recognized Permafrost areas which do not thaw at all during the year and permafrost areas whose upper layers thaw briefly during the warm season underlain by thicker layers which do not thaw even at mid-summer
{i} level of earth that is frozen all year round
frozen underground water
A permanently frozen layer of soil
Permafrost is ground that remains frozen all summer Follow the link for more in depth information on Permafrost
ground that is permanently frozen
Soil or rock at or near the ground in Arctic or subarctic regions that has been continuously frozen for a long time
(i) Permanently frozen material underlying the solum (ii) A perennially frozen soil horizon
a soil horizon where temperature is constantly below 0°C, with permanent ice
