The resulting wet environment supports those plants that are able to survive in these conditions (Walker 1985). If the center section accumulates large amounts of peat, the elevation there may gradually build up to the point that it has the appearance of a raised center polygon. The relations of topography, ice wedges, and microrelief for the types of polygons are illustrated by a schematic cross-section developed by Walker (1985). 17) is visualized as beginning at the shore of a small stream. Near the stream the ground is relatively well drained and high-centered polygons have formed.
Ice lenses undoubtedly contribute by providing a low-friction slip surface. 6 Ground Ice Ground ice is a catch-all term for large masses of ice that may exist below the soil surface. The ice may have been deposited there by any of several possible mechanisms. The ice can be glacier ice that has been covered by soil, old ice wedges, pingo ice, large ice lenses, a frozen shallow pond, etc. The presence of ground ice is significant in construction activity because of the potential for post-construction collapse.

The Russian usage allows inclusion Df areas that some scientists refer to as boreal forest. This particular distinction is not critical to engineers. Generally, in the taiga, the trees are small and rather widely spaced. The trees of the North American FIG. 14 Taiga Forest; Chernychevsky, Siberia (CRREL Photo, D.
