The Yukon Geological Survey (YGS) has compiled available geotechnical and ground temperature data and related literature from government, industry and other contributors into the Yukon Permafrost Database. This paper reviews the database development process and structure, provides a snapshot of the primary datasets that have been loaded to date and discusses some of its limitations. The database is publicly accessible from an online portal (https://yukon.ca/en/yukonpermafrost) where data may be explored interactively in web maps, tables, and time series and ground temperature envelope graphics. Database contents are also available for download in a variety of formats. The Yukon Permafrost Database provides easily accessible data on permafrost distribution and thermal regime to support the assessment of thaw-related hazard and risk, and works towards the integration of disparate permafrost data at a territorial scale. The database will be maintained and updated regularly and YGS welcomes data contributions from government, industry and academic researchers to facilitate ongoing improvements to our collective knowledge of permafrost in Yukon.

The Yukon Geological Survey has compiled a collection of papers, theses, reports and maps that describe permafrost in the Yukon. These reports have been footprinted and indexed to make them easier to find spatially. Distributed from [GeoYukon](https://yukon.ca/geoyukon) by the [Government of Yukon](https://yukon.ca/maps) .

A database of geotechnical boreholes, ground temperature, and reports relating to permafrost in the Yukon.

The distribution of permafrost in cold regions is subject to temporal and spatial changes influenced by climate, landscape disturbance, and ecosystem succession. Remote sensing from airborne and satellite platforms is increasing our understanding of landscape-scale permafrost distribution, but typically lacks the resolution to characterize finer-scale processes and phenomena, which are often better captured by surface geophysical methods. Specifically, the electrical conductivity of the earth can be used to infer lithological and pore fluid properties, and in this case to delineate frozen, partially frozen, and unfrozen ground. Here, we present electromagnetic induction (EMI) data collected in August 2012 around the highly dynamic Twelvemile Lake, Yukon Flats, central Alaska, USA. This data release presents raw and processed results from hand-carried frequency domain EMI data collected with the GEM-2 instrument (Geophex, Ltd.) at approximately 0.75 m off the ground in both vertical and horizontal coplanar modes.

This record contains data files and metadata associated with permafrost monitoring in the Central Alaska Network of National Parks. Updated and complete protocol data files, including data from all prior years, are uploaded once per year as a zipped directory labelled with the upload date. Older data uploads are maintained on IRMA as separate records for archival purposes, but the most recent zip file will always contain the most authoritative and updated records. Subdirectories included within each year's entry include: PRM01 (locations) PRM02 (field notes) PRMal01 (active layer survey files) PRMal02 (certified active layer measurements) PRMbh01 (borehole logger files) PRMbh02 (certified borehole temps) PRMrg01 (rock glacier survey files) PRMrg02 (certified rock glacier rasters) PRMst01 (soil temp logger files) PRMst02 (certified soil temps)
