The thermal structure of subduction zones is fundamental to our understanding of the
physical and chemical processes that occur at active convergent plate margins. These …

The modeling of heat recovery from an enhanced geothermal system (EGS) requires rock
thermal parameters as inputs such as thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity. These …

Accurate predictions of earth's interior thermal conductivity are essential for interpreting the
mechanisms involved in geothermal systems and delineating geothermal resource targets …

Clinochlore is a major hydrous mineral in subduction zones, and its thermophysical
properties at high temperature and pressure are critical to the thermal structures of …

Thermal conductivity (κ) and thermal diffusivity (D) of tremolite were measured at up to 2.5
GPa and 1,373 K using the transient plane‐source method in a multi‐anvil apparatus …

Talc is widely distributed in metamorphic and hydrothermally altered rocks, and its velocity is
useful for constraining the velocity of mantle wedge. In this study, we used ultrasonic …

Epidote is a potential water carrier in subducting oceanic crust, and it is involved in
temperature records from blueschist and eclogite exhumed from subduction zones. Thermal …

The thermal conductivity (κ) and thermal diffusivity (D) of plagioclase amphibolite were
measured via the transient heat-source method at 298–773 K and 0.5–3.0 GPa …

The thermal expansion coefficient of talc has been measured using a high-temperature
thermal optical expansion apparatus over a temperature range of 296 to 1473 K. The results …

Abstract Aluminous garnets [(Mg, Fe, Ca) 3Al2 (SiO4) 3] are a key mineral group in Earth's
interior. Their thermal conductivity with relevant chemical compositions and at high-pressure …
