摘要：

Fifteen heat-flow measurements are presented for eastern Arizona and neighboring areas. In the Gila Mountains of southeastern Arizona a heat flow of 1.9 HFU (the approximate average for the Basin and Range Province) is estimated for the best measurements. In the eastern part of the Safford Valley, just south of Gila Mountains, subsurface temperature gradients were measured at one site to 1050m. Heat-flow data from this site, considered with the reported hydrogeology and hot spring activity of the valley fill deposits, suggest complex hydrothermal phenomena in the valley. Several hundred km to the north, high heat flows (more than 2.5 HFU) are observed within the Mogollon Slope of the Colorado Plateau. - Authors
