The nature, composition and properties of permafrost rocks of the arctic cryolithozone development area (on the example of the Gydan peninsula)

The results of studying the nature, composition and properties of Quaternary sediments of the Gydan cryolithozone, which will serve as a reliable basis for the construction and subsequent reliable safe operation of critical engineering structures in the complex and heterogeneous geological environment of the Arctic cryolithozone, are discussed. The materials of a comprehensive engineering and geological study of soils will form the basis of a database for regional monitoring of the natural state and dynamics of man-made transformation of the geological environment of the cryolithozone for forecasting, assessing and reducing risks for the sustainable development of the territory.
