Earth's internal heat flow from the core, mantle and crust to the surface through conduction, convection, and advection. Figure by Fabio Crameri available openly from https://s-ink.org/earth-internal-heat-flow

From Earth’s warm heart to its surface glow,
Heat flows like time, constant in its flow, ~46 TW from below.

New year, new graphics to make hidden mysteries known,

Hi Mike, that’s great to hear. Obviously, we like your work too! 🫶

We mostly aim for Geoscience content right now (mainly to establish a clear direction and increase our chances to find dedicated funding), but are open for somewhat general content from other disciplines too.

Glad to hear. Thanks for the shoutout and sharing your poster!
We hope you had a good #AGU Meeting.

In terms of effective poster design…

Would be great if you could add us too! We mainly post about science graphics and related background information. — Thanks!

Ok, nice! Thanks for the info.

This is a great feed? Thank you!

Would our account fit in there too? — We share open science graphics including illustrations and artistic impressions.
