  • Heat flow results from plate boundary observatory boreholes in California

    Creator:
    McDonald, Kyle Joseph
    Abstract:
    An integral component to understanding lithospheric rheology, fault mechanics, and geodynamic processes is knowledge of the subsurface thermal regime. This study presents thermal data from 26 new borehole sites drilled during the installation of borehole strain meters as part of the Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO). These data extends existing coverage...

  • Heat Flow along the Southern Costa Rica Margin : Insights on the Updip Limit of Seismicity

    Creator:
    Hass, Bridget M.
    Abstract:
    Heat flow analysis of the Costa Rica convergent margin is carried out for seven core sites drilled during Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expeditions 334 and 344 as part of the Costa Rica Seismogenesis Project (CRISP). These expeditions were designed to develop a better understanding of erosional subduction zones. Heat...
