definition
  • 1. (Also called perennially frozen ground, pergelisol, permanently frozen ground.) A layer of soil or bedrock at a variable depth beneath the surface of the earth in which the temperature has been below freezing continuously from a few to several thousands of years. Permafrost exists where the summer heating fails to descend to the base of the layer of frozen ground. A continuous stratum of permafrost is found where the annual mean temperature is below about 5C (23F). <p>2. As limited in application by P. F. Svetsov, soil that is known to have been frozen for at least a century. <p> Muller, S. W., 1947: Permafrost, or Permanently Frozen Ground, and Related Engineering Problems, <p> Hare, F.
