abstract = {Freeze and thaw processes are important components in
characterizing glacial, periglacial and frozen ground
environments, and hence the response of cryospheric regions
to climate change. High-frequency ground-penetrating radar
is particularly well suited for monitoring the freezing and
thawing processes within the shallow subsurface (i.e., < 1 m
depth) due to its non-invasive nature and its sensitivity to
the liquid water component in soil. The freezing of moist
soil and thawing of frozen soil induce leaky and
low-velocity waveguides, respectively. Within these
waveguide layers, the internally reflected radar energy
produces interfering multiples that appear as a package of
dispersed waves. Here, we present a new method for
characterizing very shallow freeze and thaw processes, in
which the waveguide properties are obtained by inverting the
observed dispersion curves. This new method can
non-invasively monitor freezing and thawing processes in a
wide range of glacial, periglacial and frozen ground
studies. Citation: van der Kruk, J., C. M. Steelman, A. L.
