A government dug top secret permafrost research project on the dangers of thousand year old bacteria sounds like the perfect start to a horror novel. Fascinating video!
The title of this video really gives off a horror story vibe too
Or Prophecy.
@bernard Li - While watching this video, I was slowly coming to the same conclusion...bacteria, potential virus...but, no, not really...then, trying to slide the "global warming" story in...
In my opinion, I guess, this sweet, innocent looking girl could potentially be the perfect cover up for some of the "stuff" that might be actually going on in these areas?! Hummm 🤔💬
Perhaps, she's not even aware of that either.
Right oh we're worried about it, let's just dig a hole so that things can heat up and leak out. Kick start our demise.
nothing like that is gonna happen tho. we are stronger than you think.
There is another tunnel into permanently frozen ground is found on Svalbard Island in Norway. At nearly 80 deg north the Global Seed Vault protects crop seeds for the future away from war, decease and more. In recent years there was a flood incident where larger amounts of water than expected entered the entry but this issue has since been resolved but illustrates that the permafrost is more prone to melting than realized only a few years ago.
So its not permanently frozen 😮
@@Ross-ql9fi that’s right, I guess they didn’t expect global warming to have such an impact so soon
We did resistivity surveys in the Arctic back in the seventies and we measured 2400 ft. Of perma frost depth. The depth was important for siezemic measurements looking for oil. When mining in the NWT the first three levels at 150 ft per level were frozen solid, filled with ice and the temp got warmer as you go down. At a level of a mile down the temp was in the 90's
Diana, I don’t mean to be rude but I think I have watched ALLLLLLL of your videos at least a million times, I have listened to every utterance of awe through your voice and then my own as I see what amazed you on my small window into your unique prospective of our world, which fills me with wonder and joy, and that brings me to the request that may seem rude as it will take up your time.
I would request that once you’ve kicked this illness and take a minute or two to take a deep breath, or two, and give your husband a big hug from all of us, that once the formalities are sorted will you please, and this is the selfish part, will you please be so kind as to continue taking your film crew/family (I’m certain anyone who is around you becomes like family pretty quickly) everywhere you go so we too can experience the absolute childlike wonder at everything that encourages and enables the wisdom that you exude in quite, again I apologize, quite an annoying amount for someone so damn young. I apologize, it’s just that we miss you,… and cannot wait to see you up and running like usual. Be safe, we love you both! Your fans.
Yes! ❤❤❤
I think after this illness she should take a year or 3 off and just spend time with her family.
I lived in Fairbanks for 7 years and got a chance to go into the tunnel when it was briefly opened to the public. It's a fascinating place. I can definitely vouch for the smell.

Tell us more about the tunnel experience?
@@sailaab - Yeah, methane has no odor.
Just like the video only with an extra sense thrown in.
I grew up about 10 minutes away from this area on Goldstream Road. I was totally geeking out while I watched this seeing images from my hometown. I had to pass that collapsing house nearly every day on the way to town. One of my buddies in jr. high school lived in that same area and their house was also folding down the middle just like that. Thanks for a little visit back home.
Doesn't even know the difference between CO and CO2 what a sheep. Trees breath CO2 and there was a time when there was so much CO2 the the plants thrived greatly. CO is carbon monoxide and that is bad for us but you wouldn't know that because you listen to what the gov says instead of thinking for yourself. looks like I'm smarter then an MIT but I not surprised as the are a group of 3k scientists that have proven NASA wrong about 4 times on big subjects and predicted NASA's findings numerus times when they wouldn't listen to them. They are called Suspicious0bservers.
Interesting
That house has been like that for 40 years I've watched it since the first time I came to Fairbanks AK.
i remember seeing you there with you pet Polar Bear
I'm guessing that good floor insulation is a worthwile investment in that area.
It's pretty common for houses to collapse from permafrost melt. There are indicators of where permafrost is closer to the surface so houses are build on pilings or adjustable posts to account for the fluctuation in stability. A large number of houses up here are DIY houses though so some people don't take the precautions.
I hope you are recovering. I was down for a year for torn ligaments and I'd become so weak. I know the climb to strength and health is difficult and sympathize with your illness, that was more devastating than mine. Good luck and vibes to you.
On a lighter note, I just want to say that Iong ago, I was once assigned to dig a hole for a septic system. With a simple shovel, in AK, as a rookie fishing guide. I kept wondering why the bosses kept checking in... Hitting solid ice at about 2-3 feet, I figured out this may be a prank... It was like hitting steel. After the veteran dudes got the laughs, they brought in the backhoe... AK has basically built on the permafrost, in my 25+ years, I have dug other holes, it is changing...
Pretty much what happened to "digging foxholes" in fairbanks was like.
It is changing.
VERY, VERY FAST.
Wtf? Permafrost? What you talkin bout Willis. Mind-blowing
Of course it's changing, did you think it was there forever, has always been there. How did organic material and remains get so deep underground unless it has changed over the years, centuries and millennia?
Don't panic but things are constantly changing, the Sahara wasn't always a desert, the southwest was once under water, most of north America was one under ice. We see but a very short picture of historical time. We barely have historical record of the past 2000 years, what we actually see is like freezing one frame in a very long movie. It's not an accurate depiction of the entire movie.
Someone really does not grasp the meaning of "Geological Timescales".
My uncle is a frozen ground structural engineer. He has analyzed a couple buildings in Alaska where the pilings were failing. He said ice is not just a solid. The colder the ice the stronger it is. So buildings built 50 years ago that did strength calculations at -20 degrees will fail if the ice warms to -10 degrees.

First time watching one of your videos, I love how real and chill you are! Thanks for the content 😊
I am thrilled to have stumbled across this channel. I Love learning. Thank you Physics Girl.
The anthrax outbreak in Russia reminded me of a movie from 20 or 30 years ago. There was an outbreak of a disease, supposedly the Spanish flu, and they went to Siberia and exhumed a couple graves of victims from perma-frost to get living samples to work with. I know the science was iffy at best, but the premise was possible.
I watched a documentary, maybe 10 or more years ago, that was about a team exhuming specific Spanish Flu victims in Alaska. They had the whole hazmat procedures, suits, and tents in place in the middle of nowhere. That's how cautious they were about tinkering with the site.
There was a TV series The Last Ship (2014-2018) if I remember right a thaw uncovered something birds picked up and spread deadly desease. In short order a pandemic wiped out 5 billion people. Many died because a scientist had a brilliant idea for a cure which actually made it more deadly.
@@ThePharaz I remember that TV series, it starred Rhona Mitra. Didn't know it lasted four years
That sounds like an episode of the TV series: PREY, from 1998, only the location of that episode was a gravesite in Alaska
@@JohnSmith-eo5sp It went from trying to find a cure to setting up a stable government and go after those trying to end everything.

One event that may interest is from the island Gruinard off Scotland. In 1942 it was used to test the effect of a virulent strain of Anthrax. It worked a bit to well. The island was quarantined for decades until in 1986 it was decontaminated with 280 tonnes of formaldehyde allowing it to finally be safe for humans again in 1990 after 48 years in quarantine 😱
I really like Amanda. She's so chill about awesome and terrible things.

She is super chill about permafrost.
I’d like to take her to a beach.
@@matthewwriter9539 did anyone catch this pun
Dr. Barker's voice and energy totally changed when the video went from her being "tour guide mode" to "hey explain your research to me mode". It's so dope to see someone explain their projects.
We love to see our team get excited about their research! We're proud of Dr. Barker and the incredible work she's doing at the tunnel. Thank you for watching!
I watched this before….fascinating. Loved seeing it again. You’ve got this Diana❤
Ooh, so cool to see this video (even if it only popped into my feed a year late)! I've been in to that tunnel... in 1998 when I was a PhD student, visiting my mate who was doing a post-doc studying the melting of the perma-frost! I can still remember seeing frozen bones and being able to "walk back in time" as you go deeper and deeper.
Actually there is a whole system of tunnels and such that reach the permafrost layer in many cities in Siberia. In particular Yakutsk has also made a museum going into the permafrost layer due to how they build houses.
theres also many hundreds of tunnels in permafrost in canada and alaska that were dug as part of placer gold mining operations.
"The only one in the world" was QUITE the exaggeration.
we're infectively thawing the north pole from the in side out.
I was wondering what does she means. Maybe it's unique in some way, but she did not say.

Do you think an earthquake will soon crash that tunnel? Alaska I due a big one plus volcanos.
This just took me 50,000 years or so into the past. Thanks for sharing and I'm glad I learned about this.
Very exciting video.
Would love to visit the place along with physics girl.
Not the only permafrost tunnel, I have been in one dug in the ground below Tuktayuktuk. The locals have dug a tunnel with rooms they use as freezers for storing their meat during the summer. It had some of the most amazing frost and ice crystals forming on the walls.
Just to be clear, ice tunnels and a permafrost tunnel are VERY different things. Are you sure you’re not referring to the ice tunnel?
@@brie3679 TheTuktayuktuk site was developed for the same purpose, permafrost research.
True.
Yep they do that in Siberia freezing Caribou carcasses!=8)

Parenthetically, when Army engineers were figuring out the DEW Line up north, they had to freeze the foundations because they melted the surrounding permafrost.

I don't understand. Afaik, if there is permafrost, you just build on top of that. Ofc you need to insulate the bottom, but digging up the area you need would require too much effort.
love to this again, strength for the long road you both
Great video. Keep up the awesome work. Thank you
Fun Fact: Most Canadians that live in northern areas of Canada, are infinitely aware of what permafrost is, and how it affects your life!

@@jessicaf6358 That story had a beginning and an end but no middle. Wut.

Yeah, there are some videos that are a nice way to add on to your knowledge, but the real masterpieces on this channel are the ones that are completely different.
*What's absolutely cool is the way she just dispelled the disinformation campaign regarding permafrost.*
Everyone I've asked in the last 20 minutes thinks permafrost means permanently frozen. I got different answers from people, but literally the shortest was 100 years out of 10 people. The 2 longest were 1mil+ years.
If something is frozen for 2 years can you REALLY call that PERMA frost?
That's rhetoric.
She's good at climate change rhetoric though, which is why the youtube "algorithm" picked her (hint, their system is half-algorithm and half-administration)

Wow! This video was truly amazing! Thank you so much!
Finally the video about frozen dirt I've been looking for all my life! ;) On a serious note, while the reasons and implications of melting permafrost are disconcerting to say the least, the whole "opening an ice age time capsule" aspect is really fascinating.
i’ve noticed a lot of people confuse “science” with the information that it produces- gravity isn’t science, for instance, it was theorized and proven *using* science. science is a practice and i’m glad to see you emphasize that in your videos
Science is nothing but ideas.

Hi! New subscriber here. Fascinating video! Thank you for sharing! I’m gonna marathon a few more of your videos now, I have some catching up to do! :)
A great video. Very well presented, clear and informative 👏👏👏, who knew!
When I was a kid, one of my favorite movies was Ghostbusters. Specifically, Egon. My favorite line was... I study moles, spores, and funguses. My biggest fear with studying permafrost is that we accidentally unleash an ancient bacteria, virus, mold, spore, or fungus that's deadly. You know, kind of like The Andromeda Strain.
I love that book. (Andromeda Strain) it was an awesome read.
ruclips.net/video/S5_gpa-Z92M/видео.html
The permafrost is melting whether we like it or not. Better we study it and if there is something dangerous we find it before it becomes a problem.
Unfortunately that is pretty likely. We have already experienced such issues as people push further into jungle and rainforest environments for the first time, so goodness knows what is captured in permafrost.

Serious question Dianna, when you (or any other scientist) go on trips like this (with being exposed to old microbes, or being exposed to stuff the normal person isn't going to come across), what's required for vaccines, medical check-ups, stuff like that? Is there a decontamination process? Even if most microbes are safe, what happens if you get a cough a week later? Any big protocols?
I hope she replies, fantastic questions GG 👍👌
Acess was originally even more stringent, but keep in mind this has been used for research for 60 years and nothing problematic has been found.
@@sevak2435 that we know of
@@grimalteruism8641 Didn't you learn anything in the last two years, that the reality of "interesting times" is just incredibly boring. Sorry but there'll be no planet ending plague in that tunnel like in the movies.
@@grimalteruism8641 right we too often project what we know onto everything else, perhaps ancient bacteria took years of dormancy inside the genetic line of a species to have negative effects, it is probably slower at reproducing
The smell in this tunnel begs this question: when you smell something, that means that molecules of that "something" are being released into the surrounding air. Would there not therefore be some sort of risk in breathing in this air? If permafrost anthrax can be unearthed and contaminate deer in Russia, could the smell of organic material actually contaminate one who breathes it in? (i apologize if this topic has been covered already.)
In Mediaeval Times people thought disease was spread by foul air, like from marshes, hence the name "Malaria"
You don't need to smell something to be infected by it. They also determined that what makes up and made the smell, in the tunnels specifically, wasn't a danger. So far.
Could we carry a pathogen that lays dormant for a decade and infect everybody before mutating and hurting people? Sure. Will it happen? Maybe not ever. I'd be more concerned about something like anthrax.
Though nothing will pop out of the ground and infect everybody through this tunnel or any melt. It'll spread and kill as it goes if it did come. We won't see the start of some surprise apocalyptic end of humanity event that we have zero chance of fighting.
If it was that dangerous, where permafrost thawing killed all of us, nothing would have been left alive back then anyway. Evolution would have started again 50k-10k years ago when the permafrost formed trapping whatever superbug.
We didn't land on this planet as aliens. We came from prior species and such. Though the idea of a dormant microbe waiting to kill us all is a great scifi story. "Did humanity dig too deep into the stability of our world?" "Chapter One: The Industrial Revolution"
Yes
Yes, definitely and not limited to bac-T or virions but various gases and vapors as well.

I missed this one.... Thanks Dianna.... ❤️
Love your films...sending prayers for you to regain your health xx
I drive past the Permafrost Tunnel almost every day. It was so great to see my home area here and to actually find out more about what they do in that tunnel. Glad your enjoyed your trip to our little slice of ice in Alaska. Come back in the summer someday.
Repent and follow Jesus! Repent doesn't mean confess your sins buy to stop doing them altogether. Belief alone is messiah doesn't give you salvation you have to follow and obey His commands too - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36. The last 3000+ years have been a testimony to God's word. contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) God is real and can tell the future/ make it happen or B) The world leaders/nations/governments have been conspiring together for the last several millenia. Bible prophecy is still being fulfilled too with the rebirth of Israel in 1948 and the incoming RFID microchips that Sweden is testing out right now.
Pray for God to intervene in your life and look for the motion of His hand. If you have any questions about scripture feel free to ask me
Yo fellow Alaskan! Have a great day.

Question. If the artifacts in the tunnel are worth so much to be deemed "Priceless", why doesn't someone dig another tunnel in the area and become a millionaire?
@PH INFO 101 the artifacts aren't what it priceless, it is the knowledge gained from research. There are people "mining" those same physical specimens, from the permafrost on their own properties, annually in Alaska.
I work at the main lab for this location in NH. We work every day with a team that's up there in Alaska. Awesome to see more awareness about this work!

Very very outstanding video young lady. Great job. Keep up the good work. Thanks a lot friend. SC Navy vet
That was great - thanks! I lived in Fairbanks from 1978 to 1986 and permafrost was a really big deal even back then. Plenty of roads and buildings were trashed by melting permafrost. The Alyeska Pipeline uses a very creative natural refrigeration cycle in its pilings to super-freeze the ground around the pilings every winter.
I spent several weeks in the arctic oil fields near Dead Horse, Alaska in the mid-90s. At one of the drill sites, I retrieved a chunk of permafrost that had just been brought to the surface from a level about 1,000 feet down. I still have it in my freezer. Very cool to be able to hold something that contains plant material from tens of thousands of years ago.

Interesting to hear about the use of soil resistivity measuring. I design lightning protection systems as well as the below ground earthing systems for electrical substations and those sorts of readings are a critical piece of input data for the simulations that I run on an earthing system prior to it being installed.
In the early 1900s there was an extreme outbreak of anthrax that killed massive amounts of reindeer. Due to the permafrost, they couldn't be buried too deep, and there are over 7,000 shallow graves full of more than a million dead reindeer. I think it's safe to say that the main disease that [melting] permafrost causes is outbreaks of anthrax. Though other diseases are possible as well.
Permafrost does not cause anthrax. It can preserve. As can ice

@@dananorth895 OBVIOUSLY they meant MELTING/thawing permafrost, not the permafrost itself. 🙄
It almost seemed like you concluded that from a singular event, which would not be reasonable :p
So just to satisfy my pedantism, I looked it up:
"Frequent outbreaks of anthrax caused death of 1.5 million deer in Russian North between 1897 and 1925. Anthrax among people or cattle has been reported in 29,000 settlements of the Russian North, including more than 200 Yakutia settlements, which are located near the burial grounds of cattle that died from anthrax." _(Thawing of permafrost may disturb historic cattle burial grounds in East Siberia. Boris A Revich et al. Glob Health Action. 2011)_
@@tempestive1 It's not quite the same story as "prehistoric microbes devastate mankind" is it?
Perhaps people aren't aware that anthrax is still endemic in some parts of the world. Over 2000 deaths per year, including 2 in the USA.

Thanks for this, Dianna! The deep permafrost just absolutely fascinates me and every time I hear of a video about it I stop what I'm doing and check it out. It's simultaneously one of the most interesting areas of scientific exploration and potentially one of the most impactful on our future world, and yet we tend to hear so little about it even with the dramatic blowouts happening in the Russian tundra. Anyways, one can imagine how excited I was to see that you actually went there and covered it. Oh what I wouldn't do to get samples under a microscope, stinky foo foo or not. The very idea of actual living, ancient microbial life and an incredible array of dead but preserved life of all kinds spanning tens of thousands of years, just waiting there to be studied.

Amazing... I was aware of the issues caused by the melting of Therma frost in places like Alaska, but to actually go deep into tunnels and actually see the effects of sublimating close up was eye-opening. We really have a huge problem...
love your stuff. I was the monster nerd in my family. Took everything apart to see how it worked, just couldn't get it back together, to the consternation of my parents. Now I'm a retired engineer and can take stuff apart and get it back together. You ROCK, love your channel. Thank you
Get back together better i'm sure, My Friend!

Fascinating. Ty for sharing a superb video!
I hope she gets well soon .
Great video, Dianna! Thank you!
1st time viewer, and as a non scientist I found this episode fascinating, I loved the bite size segments, it really kept me watching. Looking forward to checking out your past and future videos :)
I absolutely looooooove your videos you definitely keep me engaged with the education on all kinds of interesting subjects and addicting to watching you explain to us 😄
Hey I love your channel. Thank you 😊
I had no idea I would learn so much from this video thank you.
I learned more about permafrost in this video than I ever did in geography classes in school. Solid informative video like always.
Thank you for the content you bring and the easy to digest way it's delivered...love the channel
Sending you positive energy, Dianna!
This was fascinating to watch, thank you.
I've seen discussions about Canadian and Alaskan permafrost "melting" and releasing methane, and that being a huge problem for a runaway global warming problem. But I haven't seen discussions about how deep the frozen water goes under this and how that could absolutely wreck infrastructure. Or microbes waking up. Well ... I mean other than in a few select horror movies like "The Thing". And ... I think it was "Trapped" maybe? (Some TV show in ... Scandinavia? With English subtitles? Maybe?) Anywho, thanks for putting it all on one plate of horrors! Finding a sabertooth tiger sure would be cool though. We can go to the moon, and soon put boots on Mars, but we don't even understand our own planet. Sheesh! LOL
I know, everybody can contribute, with their own theory, on anything!
the methane release is way over -hyped. Ground bacteria will break down most of the methane before it enters atmosphere.
Oh, and the greenies and their global warming agenda are happily turning a blind eye to the sun entering a cool cycle. Record low number of sunspots. Going to be in a cooling cycle for at least ten years.
That last statement is so true! 👍
Climate change is rubbish
Giant mounds of methane have been exploding, (not combusting), in the Russian tundra. The concentration of methane being released yearly is massive.
This was really fascinating! Thank you for doing what it took to bring us this video. I knew about permafrost in general, but not all these details.
I really wish I had been strong academically in maths and sciences. They are so fascinating and every time I watch 1 of your videos I am envious. There is just so much knowledge out there so many fascinating things that I was never even aware of that I learned from watching your videos. Thank Thank you so much for sharing that it's truly appreciated and it's a great learning experience
I was strong in science and math, and was told the best thing I could do was be a teacher because I was a girl
I tried to get my daughter interested in your channel, but she isn’t interested in science stuff. You are a great roll model for young girls!
Just discovered your channel. WOW. Great way you have of defining the research facts to average persons who don't understand the scientific terms and can take away a great learning experience. Great job. Going to view other videos you've made.
This was an awesome episode! Thank you for always finding cool and important content to post. Science Rocks!!
Great job , lightbulb teaching 😊
thank u sooo much for your chanel, making Science thingies easily acceseble for someone like me with dyslexia and adhd , mucho love !!!!
Hey Physics Girl, love your videos, they are always super interesting and easy to watch. Need more of them !!
I absolutely adore your excitement and enthusiasm to learning it's the most addictive thing to watch ❤️
That’s wild! Awesome video! Learn something new everyday!
Thanks for this astonishing video!
This is very cool! I went to UAF and got to visit the perafrost tunnel once. We didn't go all that deep, and visited midwinter. It's so cool that we happened to accidentally begin the process of learning so much about permafrost.
Great introduction on the permafrost tunnel and what is going on in the melt periods vs the freeze cycles. Enjoyed it very much.
Wishing you well and a full recovery.
Interesting and informative - thank you !
