Geothermal measurements in the northern Red Sea: Implications for lithospheric thermal structure and mode of extension during continental rifting
Heat flow and the thermal origin of hot spot swells: The Hawaiian Swell revisited
We present 150 new heat flow measurements obtained at eight sites along a 1230-km-long profile across the Hawaiian Swell about 700 km ESE of Midway Island. Most of the measurements include in situ thermal conductivity determinations, which helped to reduce the statistical uncertainties (95% confidence) at all sites to <±2.l mW m?2. Surprisingly, there is no systematic variation in heat flow across the axis of the swell. With one exception, the mean heat flow (corrected for sedimentation) at each site is within ±10% of the mean value of 57.7±4.3 (S.D.) mW m?2 for all sites. At the two sites …

Heat flow measurements in the northern part of Honshu, northeast Japan, using shallow holes
One of the most notable features of heat flow distribution in the Japanese Islands is the existence of a low heat flow zone on the Pacific Ocean side of the Northeast Japan Island Arc and a high heat flow zone on the Japan Sea side. However, the detail of the transition between the low and high heat flow zones has not been apparent because of the lack of available deep holes. Heat flow measurements in the transition zone have been made using shallow holes. By the combined use of a new multisensor long-term underground temperature recording system and conventional techniques, …
The use of laboratory velocity data for estimating temperature and partial melt fraction in the low-velocity zone: Comparison with heat flow and electrical conductivity studies
Peridotite is widely considered to be the dominant component of the upper most mantle. Seismic velocities of a dry peridotite determined in the laboratory at high pressure and hypersolidus temperature show a rapid decrease with increasing temperature. The strong temperature dependence of velocities can be used to estimate temperature and melt fraction in the low-velocity zone of the Earth. The laboratory results show that the pressure dependence of both velocity and melt fraction appears to be well accounted for by the pressure dependence of the solidus temperature of the peridotite, i.e., homologous temperature dependence. This observation allows us to extrapolate …
