Abstract

The knowledge of radiogenic heat generation distributed in the crust is indispensable for the interpretation of terrestrial heat flow patterns and for the calculation of geothermal models; therefore, it is a key to understanding the heat flow division in the crust and upper mantle, and the thermal state of the lithosphere. The heat generation in uppermost crust is usually calculated by determining the contents of heat production elements U, Th and K in
