Geothermal gradient is the increase of temperature in relation to the increasing depth in the Earth's interior. The Earth's internal heat source comes from the joined forces of residual heat from planetary accretion and heat produced through radioactive decay. It may also come from other sources.
the external remparture of the earth is much lower than the temperature far beneath the earths surface
What are two ways that's scientists can study earths climates history

In ice.
Earth's water is called the hydrosphere.
Geothermal gradient refers to the increase in temperature with depth below the Earth's surface. On average, the geothermal gradient is about 25-30°C per kilometer. This gradient varies depending on factors like location and geologic conditions.
The geothermal gradient is approximately 25 degrees Celsius per kilometer of depth below Earth's surface. This means that the temperature increases by about 25 degrees Celsius for every kilometer closer to the Earth's core. This gradient is used to estimate subsurface temperatures for geothermal energy extraction and other geological studies.
The temperature at 3.4 km below the Earth's surface generally increases with depth due to geothermal heating. On average, the geothermal gradient is about 25-30 degrees Celsius per kilometer, so at 3.4 km below the surface, the temperature could be around 85-102 degrees Celsius.
geothermal starts at the outer edge of the earth's crust and gets hotter the deeper you go. The gradual increase in the temperature as the depth increases is called the geothermal gradient. As you proceed through the crust the gradient is gradual. When you break through the upper mantle the temps then rise almost exponentially.
As depth beneath the Earth's surface increases, both temperature and pressure increase. This is due to the weight of the overlying rock and the Earth's internal heat. The increase in pressure and temperature with depth is known as the geothermal gradient.
The temperature of rock located 1000 kilometers below Earth's surface can range from 500 to 1100 degrees Celsius, depending on various factors such as geothermal gradient, heat flow, and the composition of the rock.
The stable temperature of the Earth's crust is important in the production of geothermal energy. This temperature determines the viability of harnessing heat from beneath the Earth's surface to generate electricity or provide heating. A stable temperature allows for more efficient and reliable extraction of geothermal energy.
Geothermal energy.
below the surface of the earth, as we move deeper towards the core (HEAT's CAUSE) the temperature rises. this rise of temperature with depth is referred to as the geothermal gradient. in most parts of the world that are away from the plate boundaries, with every km depth an increase of 22 degrees Celsius in temperature is observed. Different areas show different geothermal gradients. in many parts of the world its as high as 30 degrees Celsius per Km and in some its as low as 15 degrees Celsius per Km.
people dont use geothermal it is in the earths crust so people dont use geothermal
because of the earths surface
For the most part, yes. (There are exceptions, of course.)
