Heat flow measurements on METEOR cruise M86/5

Listed in PANGAEA

Mud volcanoes (MV) are sources of mass and energy, transported from deeper levels of the sediment pile to the surface.

Description

Together with fluid and gas, thermal energy is emitted through these structures. Therefore heat flow determination is a sensible tool to detect and quantify the amount of convective flow.

In the Gulf of Cadiz several mud volcanoes can be found along major tectonic lines (SWIM faults). We employ geothermal measurements to observe the activity of mud volcanoes and possible leakage at the faults apart from pronounced structures.
