Abstract:
This NWT Open Report summarizes ground temperature data collected between 2017 and 2018 at 14 boreholes drilled into the embankment of the Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk Highway (ITH). The borehole drilling and ground temperature cable (GTC) installation at these sites was completed by the Government of Northwest Territories, Department of Infrastructure. The drilling was part of a larger geotechnical project (Project YARC030971-01).
