Cryoturbation is the dominant force operating in the active layer, and tends to make it generally uniform in composition throughout. However, variation in the composition of soils due to differences in parent rock are very marked in permafrost regions due to the low rate of weathering in the very cold climate.
The cache footprint of the media image of a shardmap is therefore just one disk block per shard. A small fifo on media is easily loaded and converted to an efficient hash table shard on demand. Once in cache, index updates are performed by updating the cached hash table and appending the same entries to the final block of the shard fifo.

Permafrost temperature profile. Permafrost occupies the middle zone, with the active layer above it, while geothermal activity keeps the lowest layer above freezing. The vertical 0 °C or 32 °F line denotes the average annual temperature that is crucial for the upper and lower limit of the permafrost zone, while the red lines represent seasonal temperature changes and seasonal temperature ...
