3 1. Convection transfer of heat through large scale fluid flow. flow caused by density differences due to temperature differences 3 Types of heat transfer

4 2. Conduction Transfer of heat by direct contact 3 Types of heat transfer

5 3. Radiation Transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves 3 Types of heat transfer

6 Deep Earth

7 Plate Tectonics - Driving Forces Convection Slab Pull Ridge Push Short Story: heat trying to escape

8 Plate Tectonics - Driving Forces Convection Slab Pull Ridge Push Short Story: heat trying to escape

9 Seismic Tomography Warm, less dense Cold, more dense

10 Is the mantle a liquid? Doesn’t convection happen in fluids? Mantle is like silly putty: Short term: acts like solid Long term: has some behavior like liquids

11 The Core Liquid outer core found using seismology: no S-waves travel in liquids

12 Convection in Fluid Outer Core produces Earth’s magnetic field

13 Deep Earth Summary: Composition Mantle: Outer Core: “Rocky” (Silicates) density: 3-6 g/cm 3 Mostly Iron density: 10-12 g/cm 3 Inner Core: Mostly Iron density: 13 g/cm 3 density: 2-3 g/cm 3 Crust:

14 Deep Earth Summary: Heat Flow Mantle: Outer Core: Convection Convection & Conduction Inner Core: Conduction
