Аннотация:The industrial development of the permafrost zone is accompanied by the engineering-cryogenic processes evolved during anthropogenous influence on the permafrost. In order to find the place of engineering-сгуogenic processes in the system of the exogenic processes they must be classified first of all. Therefore, a classification table of cryogenic processes arising under technogenic effect has been developed. The main parameters used in the classification were the type of the engineering-cryogenic process and the factors which produce its intensification. Moreover, such influence parameters as intensity, reversibility, controllability of the engineering-cryogenic process as well as the extent of the technogenic impact provoking some engineering-cryogenic processes have been estimated.
