To learn about the temperature inside the Earth's crust, scientists study geothermal gradients, which measure the increase in temperature with depth. They often use data from wells, boreholes, and geothermal energy sites, as well as seismic studies to infer temperature distributions. Additionally, they analyze rock samples and mineral compositions, which can provide insights into thermal conditions at various depths. These methods help to create models of the Earth's thermal structure and understand geological processes.
What else can I help you with?
What causes the earths crust to rise and fall?
The sudden vibration in the plates inside the crust causes the earths crust to rise & fall.
Where do fine grained igneous rock form?
Well that will be intrusive igneous rocks, extrusive forms inside the earths crust
Why is the stress the earths crust?
The earth's crust is not stress
What effects are metamorphic rocks formed by?
Metamorphic rocks are formed by the effects of high temperature, pressure, and/or chemically active fluids. These forces cause existing rocks to recrystallize and change their mineral composition without melting.
What forms the elevated part of the earths crust?
continental crust
How does temperature of earths crust compare to the temperature of earths interior?
it depends on the deepth
What causes the earths crust to rise and fall?
The sudden vibration in the plates inside the crust causes the earths crust to rise & fall.
Why do minerals only occur in metamorphic rocks?
because of the metamorphism when temperature and pressure inside earths crust change that were present in the rock when it formed
How does the temperature of earths crust compare to the temperature of earth interior?
it depends on the deepth
How does the temperature of earths crust compare to the temperature of earth's interior?
it depends on the deepth
What do scientists study to learn about the temperature inside the earths crust?
Scientists study seismic waves to learn about the temperature inside the Earth's crust. By analyzing the speed and direction of these waves as they travel through different layers of the Earth, scientists can infer information about the temperature and composition of the Earth's crust.
What is the earths crusts tempiture?
The earths crust varies. There is no temperature because it varies from cold to hot.
When magma hardens inside earths crust it can form vertical?
sills
How do deposits of minerals form deep inside the earths crust?
by heat and pressure
What is igneas rock?
igneous rocks come from inside the earths crust. Usually through volcanoes, or fissures
What is the name of the opening in the earths crust where hot melted rocks from inside the earth come to the surface?
volcano
What is the size of the earths crust?
The Earths crust is approximately 650 km deep.
