The characteristics of sediment discharge in the Yukon River were investigated by monitoring water discharge, water turbidity and water temperature. The AA. use observational results of 1999 to characterize the Yukon sediment discharge and discusses
Measurements of turf-banked solifluction lobes at a site in the Kluane Range, Yukon Territory, are compared to observations made by L.W. Price of similar features located 50 km to the north in the Ruby Range. Both studies show that a threshold depth

The purposes of this paper are to discuss the geochemistry of the active layer and near-surface permafrost in cryosolic soils on northeastern Herschel Island, Yukon Territory, and to determine the effect of permafrost degradation on soil and surface
