Remote sensing and field-based mapping of permafrost distribution along the Alaska Highway corridor, interior Alaska We employed an integrated approach that combined remote sensing techniques with field measurements to predict the presence/absence of near-surface permafrost in a section of the Alaska Highway corridor. We investigated the correlative relationships among vegetation type, topography, moss thickness, tussock condition and near-surface permafrost in the study area. Analysis of moss thickness and active-layer depth in low-lying plains (slope <8?) showed an inverse relationship in different vegetation classes. The maximum likelihood classification of remotely sensed data mapped 80% of the study area as covered with vegetation. We developed an empirical-statistical (Binary Logistic Regression) model to establish the statistical...

ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
