Thermal history, continental growth, and the Urey ratio: How continental growth affects the thermal evolution of the Earth
Early thermal history models predicted a high Urey ratio (>0.7), in contrast to more recent geochemical estimates of 0.15-0.6. To potentially help resolve this discrepancy, we explore the effects of adding continental growth to thermal history models. The addition of continents has two effects, c...
