Concluding Remarks, References.This book provides a comprehensive review of drilling technologies in the polar regions, from the portable drilling equipment for shallow sampling and coring, to heavy drilling equipment for deep onshore and offshore drilling. Particular attention is given to safe drilling methods in permafrost. In recent years, interest in drilling in the polar regions has increased under the pressure of the geopolitical “rush” and the undiscovered resource potential. In addition, borehole monitoring of permafrost thermal states is urgently needed to obtain evidence of climate change. The book focuses on the latest drilling technologies but also discusses the historical development of sampling, and drilling tools and devices, over the last 60–70 years providing valuable insights into a way forward and future possibilities.Springer Polar Sciences,2510-0483Geotechnical engineeringGeographyEarth sciencesCivil engineeringEnvironmental monitoringMineralogyGeotechnical Engineering and Applied Earth SciencesRegional GeographyEarth and Environmental SciencesCivil EngineeringEnvironmental MonitoringMineralogyGeotechnical engineering.Geography.Earth sciences.Civil engineering.Environmental monitoring.Mineralogy.Geotechnical Engineering and Applied Earth Sciences.Regional Geography.Earth and Environmental Sciences.Civil Engineering.Environmental Monitoring.Mineralogy.016.553285622.240911Talalay Pavel G.887446MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910637732803321Geotechnical and Exploration Drilling in the Polar Regions3003841UNINA
