A review of the global climate change impacts, adaptation, and sustainable mitigation measures

K Abbass, MZ Qasim, H Song, M Murshed… - … Science and Pollution …, 2022 - Springer
Climate change is a long-lasting change in the weather arrays across tropics to polls. It is a
global threat that has embarked on to put stress on various sectors. This study is aimed to …

Antarctic geothermal heat flow and its implications for tectonics and ice sheets

AM Reading, T Stål, JA Halpin, M Lösing… - Nature Reviews Earth & …, 2022 - nature.com
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 …

[HTML][HTML] Global distribution of geothermal gradients in sedimentary basins

F Kolawole, JC Evenick - Geoscience Frontiers, 2023 - Elsevier
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 …

Defining continental lithosphere as a layer with abundant frozen‐in structures that scatter seismic waves

V Levin, S Lebedev, J Fullea, Y Li… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
We investigate the structure of the continental lithosphere by combining two approaches: a
systematic survey of abrupt changes in seismic properties detected by P‐to‐S converted …

The weight of cities: Urbanization effects on Earth's subsurface

T Parsons - AGU Advances, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Across the world, people increasingly choose to live in cities. By 2050, 70% of Earth's
population will live in large urban areas. Upon considering a large city, questions arise such …

The thermal regime of NW Canada and Alaska, and tectonic and seismicity consequences

RD Hyndman - Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
NW Canada and Alaska are the continuation of the North American Cordillera through
Mexico, western USA and western Canada. I show that they have similar thermal regimes …

Greenland geothermal heat flow database and map (version 1)

W Colgan, A Wansing, K Mankoff… - Earth System …, 2021 - essd.copernicus.org
We compile, analyse and map all available geothermal heat flow measurements collected in
and around Greenland into a new database of 419 sites and generate an accompanying …

Grain-size-evolution controls on lithospheric weakening during continental rifting

JB Ruh, L Tokle, WM Behr - Nature Geoscience, 2022 - nature.com
Variation in the effective strength of the lithosphere allows for active plate tectonics and is
permitted by different deformation mechanisms operating in the crust and upper mantle. The …

Crustal melting in orogenic belts revealed by eclogite thermal properties

B Zhang, H Fei, J Ge, L Zeng, Q Xia - Nature Communications, 2022 - nature.com
Partial melting in the continental crust may play a critical role on the behavior of continents
during collision. However, the occurrence of partial melt in orogenic continental crust is not …

Lithosphere mantle density of the North China Craton

B Xia, H Thybo, IM Artemieva - Journal of Geophysical …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
We constrain the lithospheric mantle density of the North China Craton (NCC) at both in situ
and standard temperature‐pressure (STP) conditions from gravity data. The lithosphere …
