Determining crustal temperature: What needs to be done? a. Equation b. Heat flow c. Radiogenic heat production d. Thermal conductivities of rocks

Vertical distribution of A in the crust the downward-decreasing exponential model The exponential distribution model for radiogenic heat production has seen widespread use and acceptance since it was first proposed by Lachenbruch (1968).

Implement of the continental scientific drilling made it possible to observe directly the detailed distribution of the heat production in the upper part of the crust, and to verify the heat production model of crust. There are more than 20 continental scientific drillings in the worldwide up to now, none of them has observed the downward-decreasing exponential distribution.

1. Importance of crustal thermal structure for Geo-neutrinos 2. Significance of Geo-neutrinos for secular cooling and thermal structure of earth: Provided that the crustal contribution to the geoneutrino flux can be very precisely calculated, it will be possible to put robust constraints on mantel radioactivity and its contribution to the Earth’s energy budget (Mareschal et al., 2012). Concluding remarks (Mareschal et al., 2012)
