Description
Interpolated maps of heat flow, temperature gradient, and quartz geothermometers are included as TIF files. Zones of critical stress map is also included as a TIF file. The zones are given a 5km diameter buffer. The study area is only a part of the Basin and Range, but it does includes the Tularosa Basin.

| Name | Format | Description | Link |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heat Flow.zip | ZIP | Heat flow data points were extrapolated to create the TIF image within the zipped file. Heat flow values are in mW/m^2 | Open resource |
| Geothermometer Data .zip | ZIP | Quartz geothermometer data across the Basin and Range was extrapolated to create this map. The silica concentration was used for calculating the geothermometer values, which are in degrees C. | Open resource |
| Temperature Gradient.zip | ZIP | Temperature gradients (degC/km) data points were extrapolated to create this map. It is in TIF format. | Open resource |
| Zones of Critical Stress.zip | ZIP | Areas with step-over fault setting, or termination, or apex, etc. have relatively high critical stress. These locations are mapped and buffered circularly 2.5km radius. Zones of critical stress are likely to have high permeability. | Open resource |
