Abstract

Earlier we developed an approximate method of calculating the radius of permafrost thawing by a cylindrical source with a constant temperature. In this study, we show that the effect of thermal properties changing at the ice-water transition on the radius of thawing in many cases can be neglected. Two typical examples are presented.
