Permafrost is a critical component of the Earth’s cryosphere and plays a crucial role in regulating the planet’s climate. However, permafrost is vulnerable to changes in temperature, and as global temperatures rise, it is thawing at an alarming rate. This thawing process can lead to a cascade of environmental, ecological, and infrastructure impacts1. Permafrost temperature monitoring ...
When it comes to protecting your digital temperature cables, beadedstream places great emphasis on the use of conduit. In this article, we will delve into the reasons behind this recommendation, highlighting the benefits and key considerations for different applications. By understanding the importance of conduit, particularly in remote and challenging environments, you can ensure the longevity ...
What is artificial ground freezing? Artificial ground freezing is an engineering technique that is commonly used for groundwater control and/or excavation support for shafts and tunneling projects, and mine sites1. It involves drilling closely-spaced pipes into the ground and then running coolants, such as chilled brine between -25 °C and -35 °C, through them to extract heat from the ...
The Arctic region is facing an unprecedented crisis as temperatures soar nearly four times higher than in the rest of the world1. This warming trend has caused the operating window of ice and winter roads to shrink, leaving remote northern communities and industries with limited access to transport essential goods and resources during the winter months. A recent study found that a further rise ...
SSR Mining needed to monitor the temperature profile along their French Drain system each winter. Freeze of the drain could result in seepage from the tailings pond into the adjacent lake. beadedstream’s solution allowed them to collect high quality data to monitor the performance of the drain and to mitigate any freezing that ...
The shafts for an outfall tunnel in New York required shoring for excavation support and groundwater control. Since there was limited room at site, ground freezing was selected to provide the shoring, instead of a diaphragm wall. Ground temperature monitoring was a critical component, to allow for modeling of the freeze bulbs and to verify when it was safe to begin excavation of the shaft. ...
What are thermistor strings? A thermistor, coined from “thermal” and “resistor”, is a sensor that changes resistance based upon temperature. It is used to measure temperatures within a specified range by using calibration tables to convert from resistance to temperature. Thermistor ...
“Because temperature changes can be indicative of other processes occurring within the ground, these sensors [temperature cables and thermistors] can provide useful data to engineers when site conditions start to ...
Further attached sensors are a thermistor string for high precision underwater temperature measurement and a water level sensor – both from NextSens as well. ...
