- W2080781331 abstract "Thinning of the Earth's lithosphere by heat advected to its base is a possible mechanism for continental rifting and continental and oceanic mid-plate volcanism. It might also account for continental rifting-like processes and volcanism on Venus and Mars. The Earth's continental lithosphere can be thinned to the crust in a few tens of million years by heat advected at a rate of 5–10 times the normal basal heat flux. This much heat is easily carried to the lithosphere by mantle plumes. The continent is not required to rest over the mantle hot spot but may move at tens of millimeters per year. Because of the constant level of crustal radioactive heat production, the ratio of the final to the initial surface heat flow increases much less than the ratio of the final to initial basal heat flow. For large increases in asthenospheric heat flow, the lithosphere is almost thinned to the crust before any significant change in surface heat flow occurs. Uplift due to thermal expansion upon thinning is a few kilometers. The oceanic lithosphere can be thinned to the crust in less than 10 million years if the heat advection is at a rate around five or more times the basal heat flow into 100 Ma old lithosphere. Uplift upon thinning can compensate the subsidence of spreading and cooling lithosphere. The swells will rise to a common depth of about 4 km below sea-level if the uppermost mantle beneath the mid-oceanic ridge is partially melted to a slightly larger degree than the uppermost mantle beneath the swells. Uplift upon thinning on Mars is up to 10 km or more, thus explaining the height of volcanic regions like Tharsis. On Venus, uplift upon thinning would range from 0.5 to 4 km, in agreement with observed topographic variations." @default.
