Thermal structure of the lithosphere exerts a primary control on its strength and density and
thereby its dynamic evolution as the outer thermal and mechanic boundary layer of the …

Geothermal heat flow (GHF) is an elusive physical property, yet it can reveal past and
present plate tectonic processes. In Antarctica, GHF has further consequences in predicting …

The heat budget of sedimentary basins is determined by heat transfer across the lithosphere-
asthenosphere boundary and lithospheric heat sources, such that the tectonic evolution of …

The Songliao Basin is a key geothermal resource area for medium and low temperature
geothermal energy in China. Using the latest seismic imaging data, combined with the …

Collation and dissemination of geochemical data are critical to promote rapid, creative, and
accurate research and place new results in an appropriate global context. To this end, we …

The depth to the Curie isotherm provides a snapshot into the deep thermal conditions of the
crust, which helps constrain models of thermally controlled physical properties and …

The thermal structure of East Asian continental lithosphere is critical for understanding its
diffuse and variable intracontinental deformation in the Cenozoic. Here, we present a three …

We infer the nature of continental tectonics in the Precambrian by combining our
understanding of the principles that govern the present-day behaviour of the continents …

We present a refined map of geothermal heat flow for Antarctica, Aq1, based on multiple
observables. The map is generated using a similarity detection approach by attributing …

Redistribution of elements by fluids produced by the metamorphic devolatilization (MDV) of
sedimentary rocks is one of the major processes responsible for the differentiation of the …
