Adaptation to permafrost in the Canadian North : present and future / by Ming-Ko Woo, Wayne R. Rouse, Antoni G. Lewkowicz, Kathy L. Young. : En57-55/92-3E-PDF

"Human-induced climatic warming will have major impacts on permafrost which presently underlies half of Canada's land mass. Many aspects of the northern landscape and human activities will adapt to the altered environment, and such adaptation may be contemporaneous or may lag behind climatic change. The extent of permafrost will diminish, accompanied by modifications of the land surfaces through thermokarst or slumping. Streamflow regimes, sediment transport, coastal flooding and erosion will be affected"--Abstract, page iii.
