Abstract:

A large amount of geophysical data of Tibetan Plateau has been accumulated since 1974 when the modern geophysical exploration about Tibetan Plateau began. P-wave velocities of 23 deep seismic sounding profiles are collected and relationship curve of crustal radiogenic heat and P-wave velocity (A-Vp) in each profile was plotted. The mantle heat flow contour map of Tibetan Plateau is drawn reference to terrestrial heat flow data sets. There is a very high mantle heat flow area on the Bangong-Nujiang suture zone,Indus-Yarlung suture and Lhasa block. It can be infered that the magma under the area is possible active.

Key words: Tibetan Plateau, crust, A-Vp, radiogenic heat, seismic compression-wave velocity, heat flow
