            <gco:CharacterString xmlns:gco="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco">**Permafrost** is any soil or rock whose temperature has remained below 0°C for years. In the extreme north of Quebec, it is omnipresent and very thick. At its boreal margin, further south, it appears in the landscape in the form of isolated thin plates, whose thickness is generally less than 10 m. Permafrost contains ice in various forms, whose origin is closely linked to the sedimentary characteristics and drainage conditions of the land.

The mapping of permafrost conditions for Nunavik (territory located north of the 55th parallel), carried out by the Center for Nordic Studies at Laval University, was done by applying a simple model called TTOP (Temperature at the Top Of Permafrost) for the period from 2000 to 2016. The results of the model are presented in the form of a raster file that illustrates the distribution of continuous, discontinuous, and sporadic permafrost, as well as isolated islands.

Under the effect of global warming or poorly adapted human activities, permafrost heats up or even thaws, which leads to settlements and ground movements affecting ecosystems as well as infrastructures. Thus, the susceptibility of the territory to thermokarstic subsidence was evaluated for the same territory taking into account the ice content and the temperature at the top of the permafrost. A matrix file (raster) of the susceptibility of the territory to ground subsidence associated with permafrost thaw presents three susceptibility classes (high, moderate, and low) as well as areas generally without permafrost.

                  <gmd:LocalisedCharacterString locale="#fra">**Le pergélisol** correspond à tout sol ou roc dont la température se maintient sous 0°C depuis des années. Dans l’extrême nord du territoire québécois, il est omniprésent et très épais. À sa marge boréale, plus au sud, il apparaît dans le paysage sous forme de plaques minces isolées, dont l’épaisseur est généralement inférieure à 10 m. Le pergélisol contient de la glace sous des formes diverses, dont l’origine est intimement liée aux caractéristiques sédimentaires et aux conditions de drainage du terrain.

La cartographie des conditions de pergélisol pour le Nunavik (territoire situé au nord du 55e parallèle), réalisée par le Centre d’études nordiques de l’Université Laval, a été faite par l’application d’un modèle simple nommé TTOP (Temperature at the Top Of Permafrost) pour la période de 2000 à 2016. Les résultats du modèle sont présentés sous la forme d’un fichier matriciel (raster) qui illustre la répartition du pergélisol continu, discontinu et sporadique, ainsi que les îlots isolés.

Sous l’effet du réchauffement climatique ou d’activités anthropiques mal adaptées, le pergélisol se réchauffe, voire dégèle, ce qui entraîne des tassements et des mouvements de terrain touchant autant les écosystèmes que les infrastructures. Ainsi, la susceptibilité du territoire aux affaissements thermokarstiques a été évaluée pour le même territoire en tenant compte du contenu en glace et de la température au sommet du pergélisol. Un fichier matriciel (raster) de la susceptibilité du territoire aux affaissements du sol liés au dégel du pergélisol présente trois classes de susceptibilité (élevée, modérée et faible) ainsi que les zones généralement sans pergélisol.</gmd:LocalisedCharacterString>
