permafrost

GBK English to Serbian Science Geology
Definition from weatherdudes.com:
A layer of soil at varying depths below the surface in which the temperature has remained below freezing continuously from a few to several thousands of years.
Example sentences:
ecent warming has degraded large sections of permafrost, with pockets of soil collapsing as the ice within it melts. The results include buckled highways, destabilized houses, and "drunken forests" of trees that lean at wild angles. (National Center for Atmospheric Research)
The different climatic conditions determinate the cryogenic asymmetry of the Antarctic Peninsula with respect the continuous permafrost on north-east side and the discontinuous permafrost on the west sector. (tierradelfuego.gov.ar)
Understanding permafrost is not only important to civil engineering and architecture, it is also a crucial part of studying global change and protecting the environment in cold regions. (The National Snow and Ice Data Center)

permafrost

Uslovi su teški i za građevinarstvo. Jakutsk je najveći grad na svetu sagrađen na permafrostu – tlu koje ostaje permanentno zamrznuto tokom čitave godine. Permafrost prekriva 15 odsto zemljine kopnene mase, i 65 odsto teritorije Rusije, kaže Mark Šats, istraživač na Institutu za permafrost u Jakutsku. "Druge zemlje se trude da ne podižu gradove na permafrostu," kaže ovaj naučnik.

Definition from own experience or research:
- PERMAFROST- stalno smrznuto tlo<br />Uvek zamrznuto tlo u polarnim regionima, gde je temperatura makar 2 godine ispod –5°C. Ide u dubinu i do 1,5 km
Example sentences:
С обзиром на промене настале у појави снега, леда и смрзнутог тла (укључујући пермафрост) постоји велика вероватноћа да су климатске промене утицале на природне системе. У вези ових утицаја наводе се следећи примери: -ширење и повећање броја глечерских језера; -повећање нестабилности у површинском слоју пермафроста у релевантним регионима, и повећање одрона камена у планинским регијама; (Rep. hidrometeorološki zavod Srbije)
Promene u ledu, snegu i smrznutom tlu su uticale na povećanje broja i veličine ledničkih jezera, pogoršale su stabilnost tla u planinama i drugim permafrost ("večito" zamrznuto tlo) regijama i dovele do promena u nekim arktičkim i antarktičkim ekosistemima. (Un. u KG, Maš. fak - Centar za kvalitet)
Do ovog otkrića došlo je usled globalnog otopljavanja, koje je izazvalo topljenje permafrosta (zaleđene zemlje u Sibiru). Mamut je živeo pre oko 18 hiljada godina, bio je visok 2,8 metara, težak oko 4,5 tone i star između 40 i 45 godina. (Večernje novosti)
