The elevated temperature and the application of loads that are a significant fraction of the failure strength of the material forming the asthenosphere lead to creep (or plastic) behaviour.
Mercury has the greatest temperature extremes of and planet.
It is called the asthenosphere.
"The greatest recorded temperature change in 24 hours was caused by Chinook winds on January 15, 1972, in Loma, Montana; the temperature rose from -48 to 9 °C (-54 to 48 °F). [3]" -quoted from wikipedia 'chinook winds'
The lithosphere is the upper portion of the mantle. Its temperature is around 300 to 500 degrees Celsius. The lower portion of the mantle, which is the asthenosphere, has a temperature of around 4500 degrees Celsius.
The asthenosphere is about 1600 degrees Celsius. :)
The asthenosphere is about 1600 degrees Celsius. :)
The temperature range of the asthenosphere is between 1500C-1600C.
The asthenosphere is the lower portion of the Earth's mantle. Its temperature ranges from 1000 degrees Celsius to 2500 degrees Celsius.
Deserts.
its approximately 1600 degrees c
The asthenosphere lies just below the lithosphere and composes the upper part of the Earth's mantle. Its temperature is 1300 degrees Celsius.
The asthenosphere is the lower portion of the Earth's mantle. Its temperature ranges from 1000 degrees Celsius to 2500 degrees Celsius.
The temperature of the plastic mantle, or asthenosphere, is inferred to be about 1600 degrees Celsius.

Because it is exposed to high temperature, but not enough to melt it.
