On the radiogenic heat production of metamorphic, igneous, and sedimentary rocks

Sedimentary rocks cover ∼73% of the Earth's surface and metamorphic rocks account for approximately 91% of the crust by volume. Understanding the average behavior and variability of heat production for these rock types are vitally important for developing accurate models of lithospheric tempera...
