  1. International University Courses on Permafrost 2008 (IUCP) as part of the International Polar Year gas fieldsZapolyarnoe – Yamburg – Yubileinoe 2-24 August 2008 (Polar and Overpolar territoriesin the tundra and forest tundra, West Siberia) • Russia (Moscow State University, Tyumen State Oil and Gas University) • Germany (University of Hamburg)

  2. Studying of landscape and nature on the North of West Siberia features. Field works . Studying of contemporary Cryogenic Processes and formations Contemporary frost cracking and ice wedges development Description of an exposure in the valley of Poilovo-Yakha river Thermometrical research in the borehole with thermisters Description of a soil on the top of pingo Studying of the pleistocene formations and paleogeographic reconstructions Drilling on the Polygonal Peatland, picking and description of the core Formation of a thermokarst lake thermoerosion Cleaning-up of Quaternary Sediments exposure pseudomorph by ice-wedge

  3. Studying of permafrost engineering and geoecological problems on the gas fields in cryolithozone Permafrost management in the towns Central Processing Facility Yubileinoe Yamburg System of horizontal cooling Deformation of pillars as a result of frost heaving

  4. Participation in international programsCALM и TSP international programs: CALM – monitoring of spatial distribution and long-term dynamic of the active layer. TSP– observation complex with deep boreholes equipped with automatic data collection systems and representing characteristic permafrost landscapes of West Siberia CALM (circumpolar active layer monitoring) TSP (temperature state of permafrost) Measurements on the CALM site Drilling process Investigation of grounds thixotropy in active layer BoreholeTSP The CALM result is relief map of permafrost top The TSP result is temperature curve which connected with depth

  5. International University Courses on Permafrost 2008 (IUCP) is unique school of co-operation for students Swimming in Ob river Field works In the Yamburg lednik Participants of the International University Courses on Permafrost 2008 are grateful to the Company ConacoPhillipsRussia Inc.for the financial support.
