Southern Spitsbergen coastal permafrost - repeated seismic survey supported by GPR

Year: 2025

Type: data-paper

Abstract: We present a 2D seismic and GPR data set collected to study seasonal dynamics of coastal Permafrost in the high Arctic. The data set was recorded as three repeated surveys in 2017 and 2018, aiming to image the extreme stages of the coastal Permafrost active layer. High resolution active source seismic, gathered in September 2017, April & May 2018, allows both near-surface analysis and reflection imaging of deep geological structures. Supporting GPR data, recorded in April, August and September 2018, gives high-resolution insight into the dynamically changing Permafrost's active layer. Both data sets are provided in standard formats with additional survey geometry information in external files.
