| Purpose | Collect geochemical and geophysical data in methane-emitting lakes. Study the physics, chemistry and biology associated with methane emissions from lakes in areas of discontinuous and continuous permafrost in Alaska. | ||||||||
| Location | 1) Lake Qalluuraq, near Atqasuk, North Slope Borough, Alaska;2) Killarney Lake, near Fairbanks, Alaska;3) Goldstream Bill Lake, near Fairbanks, Alaska;4) Lake Teshekpuk, Alaska, United States, North America; | ||||||||
| Summary | Chirp seismic on multiple lakes on the North Slope and 2 lakes near Fairbanks; radar data on Lake Q on North Slope and 2 lakes near Fairbanks; resistivity on Lake Q; cores and gas samples from Lake Q and Killarney Lake near Fairbanks. | ||||||||
