Refraction of isotherms: applications to define rift basin geometry

Vertical and lateral contrast in thermal conductivity produce refracted isotherms and anomalies in heat flow. For simple steady-state heat conduction, three models of rift basins with various fault attitudes (vertical, high-angle, and listric) and a thermal conductivity ratio of 1:2, basin material:...
