Summary

This chapter starts with the introduction of heat conduction and its controlling parameters. It then describes the control of thermal regimes of transform margins and strike-slip terrains by a number of material parameters such as specific heat capacity, thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, and radioactive heat production rate, which, together with their controlling factors, are described individually.
