Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to explore the impact of rock thermal conductivity and paleo-geothermal field distribution on the groundwater thermal environment. We invite original research, reviews, and technical reports on topics including, but not limited to, rock thermal conductivity measurement methods, evaluation of prospects for geothermal resource exploitation, and the relationship between deep rock heat production rates and terrestrial heat flow.
We welcome submissions from experts and scholars in the fields of geology, hydrogeology, environmental science, and related disciplines to contribute to the latest advances in groundwater thermal monitoring and modeling, with a focus on geothermal resource development and environmental protection.
