| dc.description | Temperature gradients in the earth are the result of several heat transfer processes and properties. In the shallow crust and over relatively short depth intervals, conduction and convection are primary processes. Radiative transfer is not important at typical upper crustal temperatures and rock heat production does not change temperature gradients over short depth intervals. Therefore the magnitude of a temperature gradient in a conductive temperature regime is regulated mostly by rock thermal conductivity and local heat flow from the earth's interior. Heat flow is the product of the rock thermal conductivity and the temperature gradient. | |
