Six evolutionary temperature simulations showing the transition from heat pipe tectonics to plate tectonics

Summary

edit
Description
English: (a) Heat-pipe tectonics: Shows the temperature structure and a flat isotherm with smooth lid and a narrow vent.

(b) Transition: Shows the temperature structure and a steeper lid (than that at a) with two vents (c-f) Plate Tectonics: Show the temperature structure and growing lid slopes over time

Temperature increases from blue to red.

Vice Versa for stress
