SITE
DESCRIPTION
This site is located in the central Yamal Peninsula and
occupies the top and slopes of the alluvial-marine plain. Its altitude ranges
from 15 to 32 m. The embedded 100 × 100 m CALM site lies in the
26–32 m altitude range and occupies the top and southeastern slope of the
hill. The upper portion of the lithological section at the hilltop is composed
of sands and silts. Saline clays are frequent on slopes. The hilltop is
occupied by well-drained polygonal tundra, in combination with blowout sands.
Slopes are covered by shrub tundra with abnormally tall willows, as well as
poorly vegetated shear surfaces associated with modern landslides. The total
thickness of organic cover (moss, lichen, turf, and peat) does not exceed 8 cm.
SOIL DESCRIPTION:
(predominant texture, i.e., ‘sand’, ‘gravel’,
‘peat’, etc.): Gleyic
Cryosols (sandy and clayey)
SAMPLING DESIGN AND METHOD:
1-ha grid consists of a square array
of surveyed permanent stakes separated by 10 m, yielding an 11 × 11 array
of sampling nodes on each grid. Thaw depth and snow sampling was conducted
twice by manual probing at each stake. The two values for each sampling point
are averaged, yielding a maximum of 121 data points per grid per probing date.
The active layer was not measured at locations where grid points intersect
rocks or deep water.
