A ground ice atlas of Canada

2021
This Open File summarizes ground ice information from 31 sites across the permafrost regions in Canada. The poster presents a map with photographs from each site, and estimates of ground ice abundance from segregated, wedge, and relict ice in top 5 m of permafrost, derived from national-scale mapping by O'Neill et al. (2019; 2020).
