Heat flow through the eastern Pacific ocean floor
A total of 194 new measurements of heat flow through the eastern Pacific Ocean floor are presented. They range in value from essentially zero to 8.04?10?6 cal/cm2 sec. The crest of the east Pacific rise is systematically associated with high values, a strip 200 to 300 km wide at the crest having an average heat flow of about 3?10?6 cal/cm2 sec. Within this strip, the highest values occur in two narrower zones which appear to be approximately parallel and symmetrically oriented to the crest. The source of the high heat flow in each of these zones is probably a region …
Heat Flow at Broken Hill, New South Wales
The heat flow in the Broken Hill region has been determined from temperatures measured in 18 deep depressed drill holes covering an area of 200 square miles and in 32 horizontal drill holes in mine walls. 118 thermal conductivity determinations on rock specimens representative of the area have been used. The values of heat flux range from 1.81 to 2.07 μcal/cm2 s with a mean of 1.93. The standard error of a single determination is about 5 per cent.

Preliminary Heat-Flow Profile across the Atlantic
DURING the 1962 Zephyrus expedition of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, fourteen heat-flow measurements were made from Martinique to the Canary Islands. The measurements are on a line except on the crest of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where an area was sampled. The instrumentation has been discussed previously1,2, and our preliminary values are presented in Table 1 and in Fig. 1 with bathymetry.
Heat flow in western Canada
Heat flow values have been determined for three areas in western Canada by a combination of temperature gradient measurements in abandoned oil wells, and thermal conductivity determinations on core samples. The heat flux ranges from 1.46 × 10−6 cal cm−2 s−1 in central Alberta to 2.00 × 10−6 cal cm−2 s−1 for a well near the Arctic Circle. Possible disturbances in the temperature gradients resulting from oil production and from surface temperature inequalities are considered.

Some heat-flow measurements in the North Atlantic
During the passage of R.V. Chain from Bermuda to Helsinki in July 1960, we made four determinations of the flow of heat through the sea bottom, in the fashion devised by Bullard (1954). We measured the temperature gradient in the bottom sediments with thermometers in a cylindrical probe and found the thermal conductivity of the sediments near each station from a core sample. The results are given in Table 1. The gradients in this table are based on the temperature differences, extrapolated to long times, between two resistance thermometers in the bottom half of a steel probe of 3.2 cm …

Heat flow in Pennsylvania and West Virginia
In order to obtain heat-flow values for 6 wells in Pennsylvania and West Virginia a simple technique was developed for estimating thermal resistivities from well-sample logs. This technique made use of average resistivity values for various categories of sedimentary rocks. The averages were calculated from available resistivity measurements on rock specimens, many of which did not come from the region in which the wells were located. The results indicate that, allowing for error in the estimates, the heat flow at the wells lies between 1.1 and 1.5 microcal/cm 2 sec. The problem of developing a more accurate technique for estimating …
