Distribution map of frozen ground in China based on Map of Snow, Ice and Frozen Ground in China (1998)


The scanned picture of the Map of Snow Ice and Frozen Ground in China (1:4,000,000) (Shi Yafeng, Meidesheng, 1988) is geometrically corrected and then digitized in the data set, and by taking altitude and latitude into account in combination with the continuity of permafrost, the frozen soil is divided into the predominant permafrost of high-latitude permafrost, island talik permafrost and island permafrost; high-altitude permafrost and mountain permafrost (including Altai, Tianshan Mountain, Qilian Mountain, Hengduan, the Himalayas and Taibai Mountain in East China, Huanggangliang and Changbai Mountain), and the plateau permafrost (the Tibetan Plateau), which is divided into predominant permafrost and island permafrost; and seasonal frozen soil, instantaneous frozen soil and nonfrozen areas.
