  • FLUXES OF FLUID AND HEAT FROM THE OCEANIC CRUSTAL RESERVOIR 
    Johnson H.P.; Pruis M.J. (2003)
    Recent discoveries define a global scale fluid reservoir residing within the uppermost igneous oceanic crust, a region of seafloor that is both warm and may harbor a substantial biosphere. This hydrothermal fluid reservoir ...
  • HOTSPOTS, MANTLE PLUMES AND CORE HEAT LOSS 
    Labrosse S. (2002)
    The heat flux at the core-mantle boundary (CMB) is a key parameter for core dynamics since it controls its cooling. However, it is poorly known and estimates range from 2 TW to 10 TW. The lowest bound comes from estimates ...
  • ON THE INFERENCE OF DENUDATION RATES FROM COOLING AGES OF MINERALS 
    Moore M.A.; England P.C. (2001)
    The inference of denudation rates from the temperature-time histories of rocks is not straightforward, because the geothermal gradient evolves with time, as denudation advects heat towards the land surface. We show that ...
