This borehole is located at a cluster of boreholes in close proximity (NGO-RC15-169, NGO-DD15-1006, and NGO-DD15-1007). The soil is organic-rich and hummocky and there are water-filled troughs that suggest ice wedges. There are five sub-plots here and thermistors in each of the boreholes. There are eight instruments at the site: NGO-RC-169_ST05;NGO-RC-169;NGO-RC-169_ST01;NGO-RC-169_ST02;NGO-RC-169_ST03;NGO-RC-169_ST04;NGO-DD15-1006;NGO-DD15-1007.
