Abstract. Ground temperature measurements have been carried out at eleven different sites of the Prokhodnaja valley in the high mountains of the Zailijskij Alatau (Northern Tian Shan, Kazakhstan) between the summers of 2003 and 2004. For this purpose the periglacial zone and adjacent altitudinal zones have been examined between 2,500 and 4,000 m asl with an equidistance of 250 m. The influences of the altitude, the exposure as well as the depth below the earth’s surface on the thermal content and condition of periglacial soils have been considered. The measurements provide useful information about the relations between quantity and quality of freeze-thaw action and the parameters mentioned above.

In July a further station for ground temperature measurements was established at Christianshåb. This station is the eighth erected in West Greenland as part of the Danish contribution to the UNESCO International Hydrological Decade programme (IHD). The first station was set up at Holsteinsborg in 1964, followed by a second there in 1967, two in Søndre Strømfjord in 1967, and single stations at Jakobshavn 1968, Godhavn 1968 and Egedesminde 1970. Apart from one station in Søndre Strømfjord which was closed in the autumn of 1970, all are in operation.

Making use of limited ground temperature measurements in the neighbourhood of a small shallow lake near Inuvik, N.W.T., it was possible with the help of an electronic computer to estimate the entire thermal regime under and about the lake. The results indicated a completely unfrozen zone of roughly hour-glass shape directly under the lake. Field borings under the lake and adjacent to it supported this theoretical finding.
