Thawing permafrost threatens the stability of buildings, roads, and runways across the North. Communities are experiencing ground movement at rates that outpace existing infrastructure planning.
This thread examines engineering solutions, community monitoring systems, and climate modeling tools that help manage permafrost risk. Many regions are developing hybrid approaches combining scientific data with Indigenous land-based observations.
Members are encouraged to share real-world examples, project updates, and new technologies helping stabilize critical infrastructure.
