Open elongano opened 6 months ago

Datasets of surficial geology, deglaciation, paleovegetation, glacial lake and marine limits, and modern permafrost distribution allow representations in the models of paleoclimatic shifts, tree line migration, marine and glacial lake inundation, and terrestrial emergence, and their effect on ground ice abundance.

The ground ice maps from this paper are available in the supplement in GeoTIFF format.
