Alaskan Permafrost: Transcript


By Edward Osborn GEOG 1700 What is permafrost Permafrost is the term used for ground that is frozen solid yearround When people refer to permafrost though they are almost always referring to permafrost thawing. Glacier Bay Eagles Nest Lodge is located in beautiful Gustavus, Alaska (35 miles west of Juneau). Gustavus is known for having the world’s best halibut fishing. If you want to catch all five species of salmon or gigantic halibut, Glacier Bay Eagles Nest Lodge is the place for you. Meemong Lee, Zheng Qu, James Wood. Carbon in Arctic Reservoirs .

Water samples collected over six years from major Arctic rivers (. www.arcticgreatrivers.org. ) were analyzed using the MagLab’s record-setting 21T ultra-high-resolution Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer. This magnet system’s resolving power is capable of determining elemental composition for tens of thousands of individual molecules in a single water sample. Combined with isotopic data, these formulae revealed both a common core amongst samples, as well as unique tracers of seasonality and a changing Arctic. .
