A Magma Accretion Model for the Formation of Oceanic Lithosphere: Implications for Global Heat Loss
Figure 11
Global heat flow map derived from mixed data sets. For oceanic regions with ages less than 120 Ma heat flow values are calculated using (14a) and (14b) with age values derived from a global grid at spacing (Muller et al. [59]). For continental regions and remaining areas heat flow values are derived from IHFC data set, following the procedure outlined for higher-degree harmonic representation (Hamza et al. [61]).
