ABSTRACT Degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and survival of bacteria in soil was investigated by applying different inoculation protocols. The soil was inoculated with Sphingomonas paucimobilis BA 2 and strain BP 9, which are able to degrade anthracene and pyrene, respectively. CFU of soil bacteria and of the introduced bacteria were monitored in native and sterilized soil at different pHs. Introduction with mineral medium inhibited PAH degradation by the autochthonous microflora and by the strains tested. After introduction with water (without increase of the pore water salinity), no inhibition of the autochthonous microflora was observed and both strains exhibited PAH degradation.

Saline permafrost has a detrimental impact on the performance of foundations. Increased pore-water salinity decreases the strength and increases the deformation susceptibility of permafrost and foundations installed in permafrost. A data base of the distribution of saline permafrost in the Northwest Territories shows high pore-water salinities beneath coastal communities and at locations along the upper Mackenzie Valley and within the Mackenzie Delta. Salinity of inland sites is usually low. High salinities are usually associated with ice-poor materials and are linked with previous marine submergence associated with glacial events. Key words : permafrost, saline distribution, measurements, Quaternary geology.
