- Abstract
The article investigates the effects of frozen soil and snow cover on cold-season soil dynamics in Tokachi, Japan. It notes that a substantial quantity of water was drawn from deeper layers into the 0-0.2 meter frozen topsoil layer during frozen winters. It found out that the quantity of soil water flux below the frozen layer has controlled the progression and regression of the freezing point.
