Borehole temperature measurements at the Dasan station were made by Baroo-Diver geothermal datalogger. During September 28, 2002 - August 12, 2003 three temperature data (at the depth of 0.25m, 0.5m, and 0.75m) were obtained by Environ Mon every thirty minutes. The thermal dynamics of active layer at the Dasan Korea Arctic Research Station, Svalbard (78 degrees 55.5'N, 11 degrees 56.0'E) is represented in the soil temperature which can be measured with high accuracy and high temporal resolution. Using the continuous data over a period of 318 days at the Dasan site, Svalbard, we deduce and quantify the processes which constitute the thermal dynamics. Conductive heat flow, migration of water vapor, and heat generation from phase transition are analyzed. Average thermal diffusivity indicates the range of thermal diffusivity 4x10(-7) similar to 6x10(-7)m(2)s(-1). The Dasna experiment is a good test of the geothermal method of climate reconstruction because the permafrost is a valuable recorder of climate change.
