Global map of solid Earth surface heat flow (2013, background): “Therefore, a better understanding of Earth’s surface heat flux provides a constraint on the internal state of the mantle, its evolution and geochemistry [Davies, 1989; Dye, 2012; Korenaga, 2008; Loyd et al., 2007; McDonough and Sun, 1995; Schubert et al., 1980; The KamLAND Collaboration, 2011].”
Why the atmosphere became oxygenated: A proposal (2009, background): “…is not seriously constrained, in part because there is considerable latitude in the choice of the several model parameters, in part due to the uncertainties described above, and in part because some potential sources of uncertainty have been neglected altogether (see for instance Korenaga, 2008).”
Crustal evolution and the temporality of anorthosites (2017, background): “…it has been suggested that the Neoarchean-Paleoproterozoic boundary marks the transition from a planet where internal heating (via radioactive decay) exceeds surface heat loss (via mantle convection), to one in which a secular cooling mode dominates (Herzberg et al., 2010; Korenaga 2008).”
Processes on the Young Earth and the Habitats of Early Life (2012, background): “The estimate of temperature variation by Korenaga (2008a), traced in Figure 2, agrees qualitatively with that defined by the volcanic rocks.”
A reference Earth model for the heat‐producing elements and associated geoneutrino flux (2013, background): “Future geoneutrino observations will bring clarity to the debates regarding the mantle Urey ratio (the ratio of radiogenic heat in the mantle to total mantle heat ﬂ ux) and the forces driving plate tecton-ics and mantle convection [e.g., Korenaga , 2008; Labrosse and Jaupart , 2007].”
