Permаfrоst is sоil thаt is frоzen yeаr-round. Every year, the top layer of soil thaws. This is called the active layer. The permafrost is the ground below that which remains frozen. As permafrost thaws, the active layer becomes deeper - the permafrost is farther down in the soil under a thicker, thawed active layer. A forest fire burned an area of boreal forest near Fairbanks. Researchers decided to use the opportunity to track permafrost thaw depth in unburned and burned areas in order to determine the long-term impact of wildfires on permafrost thaw. To do that, they set up plots in the burned area and in similar, unburned areas. Every year, they measured the depth of the permafrost (the thickness of the active layer) by inserting a probe into the ground and pushing the probe down until it reached the permafrost. They recorded the depth of the permafrost each year for each plot, and the means and standard errors are shown in the graph below (data could not be collected for burned plots in 2019, so that year is not shown in the graph). Figure 1. Long-term impact of wildfire on permafrost thaw at burned and unburned (control) sites. Points are means, error bars are standard error (N=10 plots per site). A. (3 pts) What do the data indicate about the long-term impact wildfire has on permafrost? Briefly summarize how the data support your conclusion. B. (3 pts) Do these data provide any evidence that climate change is causing permafrost thaw in areas that are not burned? State your answer and briefly explain how it is supported by the data.
