Geocryological Laboratory

Intensive development of the northern territories is inevitably accompanied by interference in the natural development of the environment. In this case, permafrost soils, even with short-term violations of surface conditions, can change their properties and parameters. This is especially evident with open mining. Linear structures also have a significant impact: roads and railways, trunk pipelines. Soil research in the engineering-geocryological laboratory can help here: the study of the physicomechanical and thermophysical properties of soils, the corrosiveness of soils and water.
