Antarctic geothermal heat flow (GHF) affects the temperature of the ice sheet, determining its
ability to slide and internally deform, as well as the behaviour of the continental crust …

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 …

We present a new global model for the Earth's lithosphere and upper mantle (LithoRef18)
obtained through a formal joint inversion of 3-D gravity anomalies, geoid height, satellite …

Radiogenic heat production is a physical parameter crucial to properly estimating
lithospheric temperatures and properly understanding processes related to the thermal …

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 …

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 …

Abstract The southernmost South America has been affected by the subduction of an
oceanic seismic ridge, which began to subduct below southern Patagonia at∼ 14 Ma. This …

Australia is about to become the premier global exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG),
bringing increased opportunities for helium extraction. Processing of natural gas to LNG …

Geothermal heat plays a vital role in Antarctic ice sheet stability. The continental geothermal
heat flow distribution depends on lithospheric composition and ongoing tectonism. Heat …

Viscosity and melt generation at the base of ice sheets are critically dependent upon heat
flow. Yet subglacial heat flow is poorly constrained due to the logistical challenges of …
