Numerical analysis of the role of radiogenic basement on temperature distribution in the St. Lawrence Lowlands, Québec
Abstract Regions with low or medium surface heat flow in stable cratonic areas, such as in eastern Canada, have received little attention for geothermal energy. In the presence of a high heat-producing basement overlain by a sedimentary cover, however, such areas might be prospective. Their potentia...
