| Abstract | Since the early 1990s the Geological Survey of Canada has maintained a network of air and ground surface temperature monitoring sites along a transect in the Mackenzie corridor stretching from the outer
Mackenzie Delta to northern Alberta. Data collected from these sites have been utilized to investigate the relationship between air and ground surface temperature for a range of terrain, vegetation and climatic conditions throughout the region. This
report presents the data collected up to 2012. |
| Summary | (Plain Language Summary, not published)
Since the early 1990s the Geological Survey of Canada has maintained a network of air and ground surface temperature monitoring sites along a transect in
the Mackenzie Valley corridor stretching from the outer Mackenzie Delta in the Northwest Territories to northern Alberta. Data collected from these sites have been used to look at the relationship between air and ground surface temperature for a
range of terrain, vegetation and climatic conditions throughout the region. This report presents the data collected up to 2011. |
