Albedo of Pavement Surfacing Materials: In Situ Measurements
In order to limit heat intake in the ground underneath pavements, high albedo surfaces can be used in cold regions to mitigate permafrost degradation. In this study, experimental sections at Site Experimental Routier de l’Université Laval (Québec, 2014), on the Alaska Highway (Beaver Creek, Yukon, 2012 and 2014 and at km post 1786, Yukon, 2014), and in Tasiujaq (Nunavik, Québec, 2015) were used to document the effectiveness and durability of high albedo surfacing materials. The test sections were equipped with thermistors and data loggers recording surface temperatures. Albedo and skid resistance were also monitored at these sections. In addition to the experimental sites, several albedo measurements were made on asphalt surfaces to develop a relationship between albedo and pavement age.
