(a) The vertical profile of the specific heat source (K/day). The x-axis and y-axis in (a) denote the magnitude of the heating process and height represented by sigma, respectively. The spatial pattern of specific heat sources (shading; K/day) at the level of sigma that equals 0.37 during P1 (b) and P2 (c).
