Terrestrial Heat Flow in Europe
Author: V. Cermak
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642953573
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
The outflow of heat from the earth's interior, the terrestrial heat flow, and the temperature field at depth are determined by deep-seated tectonic processes. The knowledge of the re gional heat flow pattern is thus very important in geophysics and provides a useful tool for studying crustal and litho spheric structure and understanding the nature of their evo lution. In order to use the results of heat flow measurements for regional studies and/or to correlate the observed surface geothermal activity with other geophysical or geological fea tures, a map showing the surface distribution of heat flow is necessary. Since 1963, when the first comprehensive listing of all available heat flow data appeared (Lee, 1963), several at tempts have been made to up-date the list, to classify all the data and to interpret them with respect to tectonics, deep structure and to use them for constructing surface heat flow maps. The first listing was subsequently revised by Lee and Uyeda (1965); numerous new data which were published there after were included in successive catalogs compiled by Simmons and Horai (1968) and then again by Jessop et al. (1976). The map showing the surface heat flow pattern may also be of great value for practical purposes, in view of the recent world-wide search for applicable sources of geothermal energy.

Terrestrial Heat Flow and the Lithosphere Structure
Author: Vladimir Cermak
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642755828
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 749
Book Description
Terrestrial Heat Flow and the Lithosphere Structure summarizes current problems of analyzing related data. The individual chapters are written by leading scientists in geothermics, and are arranged in three sections: - General Lithospheric Geothermics - Regional Lithospheric Geothermics - Worldwide Heat Flow Density Studies. Emphasis is laid on the interrelations between lithospheric structure and local heat flow fields.

Treatise on Geophysics, Volume 6
Author: Anthony B Watts
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0444535721
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 627
Book Description
Treatise on Geophysics: Crust and Lithosphere Dynamics, Volume 6, provides a comprehensive review of the state of knowledge on crust and lithosphere dynamics, which is defined as the study of how the outermost layers of the Earth respond to loads that are emplaced on, within, and below it and its implications for plate mechanics and mantle flow. The book begins with a chapter on plate kinematics, which shows how new observations and methodologies have improved the resolution of relative and absolute plate motions. This is followed by studies of plate mechanics, focusing on the long-term rheology of the plates and response of the plates to both relatively short-term and long-term loads. The book also includes chapters that examine the evidence from surface heat flow, borehole breakouts, and magma models for the thermal and mechanical structure of the lithosphere; the deformation of the lithosphere in extensional and compressional settings. The final two chapters deal with the structural styles of faulting in the shallow brittle part of the lithosphere, the brittle-ductile transition, and the shear zone in the ductile part of the lithosphere; and how developments in plate mechanics have impacted our understanding of geological processes. - Self-contained volume starts with an overview of the subject then explores each topic with in depth detail - Extensive reference lists and cross references with other volumes to facilitate further research - Full-color figures and tables support the text and aid in understanding - Content suited for both the expert and non-expert

Continental and Oceanic Rifts
Author: Inter-Union Commission on Geodynamics. Working Group 4
Publisher: American Geophysical Union
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geodynamics Series, Volume 8. During the past decade of the International Geodynamics Program many publications dealing with specific rift areas of the Earth's surface have appeared. Most of them followed symposia that were held in the respective rift zones. Among the rifts thus treated are the Rhinegraben, Afar, Iceland, the Baikal rift, the Oslo paleorift, the Rio Grande rift and the Dead Sea rift. Furthermore, publications dealing with studies of the ocean floor have discussed many oceanic rift areas.
