NASA-led team maps Arctic near-freezing soil phase with AI
NASA-led researchers reported the first detailed maps of Arctic zero-curtain conditions using GeoCryoAI, which combines satellite observations and model outputs with field measurements dating to 1891. The study found that spring thaw generally produces longer near-freezing periods than autumn freeze…
