一公里的岩石是很多挖掘到很温暖的条件。这是* *热量通量的关键。* *问题的关键是:地热热通量是只有一小部分百分之一的太阳能热通量。太阳能热通量平衡条件的几十,几百个瓦特每平方米[源](https://www.azimuthproject.org/azimuth/show/Solar +辐射):>地球表面吸收156 W / m <一口> 2 < /一口>从太阳(作为全球平均水平)和排放55 W / m <一口> 2 < /一口>大气长波能量。大气吸收84 W / m <一口> < /一口>和发出185 W / m <一口> 2 < /一口>作为空间的长波辐射。> >从那边巴里和…上面的数字,2003 [1]。帐户摘要基尔和Trenberth 1997[2]更为复杂,但它可以通过这张照片部分总结:> >特别注意他们列表:> > 342 W / m <一口> 2 < /一口> (341 W / m <一口> 2 < /一口>)平均功率击中地球的大气层。> > 198 W / m2 (184 W / m <一口> 2 < /一口>)平均功率击中地球表面。> > 168 W / m <一口> 2 < /一口> (161 W / m2)平均功率被地表吸收。> >将数据从Trenberth等人2009年的论文[3]。 In contrast, [geothermal heat flux]() is measured in tens of _milliwatts_ per square meter: >Heat flows constantly from its sources within Earth to the surface. Total heat loss from Earth is estimated at 44.2 TW ($4.42 × 10^{13}$ Watts).[[4]](https://doi.org/10.1029/93RG01249) Mean heat flow is 65 mW/m2 over continental crust and 101 mW/m2 over oceanic crust.[4] This is 0.087 watt/square metre on average (0.03 percent of solar power absorbed by Earth[5]), but is much more concentrated in areas where the lithosphere is thin, such as along mid-ocean ridges (where new oceanic lithosphere is created) and near mantle plumes.[6](https://doi.org/10.1126/science.246.4926.103) **Cited References** 1.
