Geophysical Evidence of Mud Diapirism on the Mediterranean Ridge Accretionary Complex

Mud volcanoes, mud cones, and mud ridges have been identified on the inner portion of the crestal area, and possibly on the inner escarpment, of the Mediterranean Ridge accretionary complex. Four areas containing one or more mud diapirs have been investigated through bathymetric profiling, single channel seismic reflection profiling, heat flow measurements, and coring. A sequence of events is identified in the evolution of the mud diapirs: initially the expulsion on the seafloor of gas-rich mud produces a seafloor depression outlined in the seismic record by downward dip of the host sediment reflectors towards the mud conduit; subsequent eruptions of …

Tectonics of the offshore Manzanillo and Tecpan basins, Mexican Pacific, from heat flow, bathymetric and seismic data

Separation of the Jalisco Block has been proposed to be the main results of oblique differential subduction of the Rivera and Cocos plates beneath North America and of the interaction between the four plates. Vector analysis of the subduction process of the Rivera and Cocos plates relative to North America results in a N11°E trending strike-slip fault boundary between the oceanic plates (at 4.2 cm/yr). most of the onshore structures are in the range of N30°-40°E and N60°-70°E, as in the Tecpan area (between Zihuatanejo and Acapulco). These results agree with the interoperation of detailed marine geophysical data collected by …

In situ determination of thermal properties of sediments using a friction-heated probe source

Marine heat flow measurements usually require inserting temperature sensor probes into seafloor sediments. The probe entry displaces the sediments and causes frictional heating along the probe-sediment interface. Since the probe cools at a rate dependent primarily upon the sediment's thermal conductivity and heat capacity, analysis of the cooling data can yield not only ambient equilibrium temperature but also thermal properties. This paper describes a study which simulates the cooling process with a finite element method. Solutions are given for seven model-defining parameters using a least squares nonlinear inversion algorithm. Advective mass-heat transfer is incorporated by introducing a heat partition factor …

Thermal Regime of the Southern Basin and Range Province .1. Heat-Flow Data from Arizona and the Mojave Desert of California and Nevada

With about 150 new heat flow values, more than 200 values of heat flow are now available from the crystalline terranes of southern California, the Basin and Range Province of Arizona, and Paleozoic sedimentary rocks of the southwestern Colorado Plateau (CP). Heat flow ranges from about 5 mW m(-2) on the CP near Flagstaff, Arizona, to more than 150 mW m(-2) in the crystalline rocks bordering the Salton Trough in SE California. The heat flow pattern within this region is complex, although it correlates with regional physiographic and tectonic features. Unlike the adjacent Sierra Nevada Batholith where heat flow is …

Determinación del flujo de calor a partir de sondeos petroleros en la Cuenca Catalano-Balear

[ES] En el presente estudio se determina el flujo de calor a partir de datos procedentes de siete sondeos petroleros situados en la Cuenca Catalano-Balear. La información utilizada consiste en diagrafías de sondeo, numerosas muestras litológicas procedentes de ripios y testigos laterales, y datos de temperatura BHT y DST. La variación vertical de la conductividad térmica se ha calculado a partir de la porosidad y de la composición mineralógica de las formaciones. El valor de conductividad térmica media de los sedimentos neógenos de la cuenca es de 2 W m ' K-'. El fuerte contraste de conductividad entre basamento y …

Terrestrial Heat-Flow in Lake-Superior

Using oceanographic heat-flow techniques, 162 measurements of heat flow were made in Lake Superior during the summers of 1966 and 1967. These data are of high quality, with precisions with respect to intercomparisons typically in the 3-5% range. The data define two very clear features. One is a trough of low heat-flow values, which runs continuously for 650 km along the northern edge of the lake, with values ranging between 0.46 and 0.98 heat-flow units (HFU) (19.2-41.0 mW/m2). This feature correlates with surface exposure of Keweenawan mafic volcanics; it is believed to delineate a major crustal separation associated with the …
