Abstract
Summary
Within the surveyed site with horizontal and depth resolution of 1–2 meters, the lower boundary of permafrost rocks was determined at a depth of over 140 m and a layer of gas hydrate inclusions with a thickness of up to 20 meters was recorded, lying at a depth of 60–80 meters. Today, when creating ground-based infrastructure in the Arctic, the MOEVM technology is quite competitive with areal surveys among any traditional geophysical technologies.
