Seismic investigation of the buried horst between the Jornada del Muerto and Mesilla ground-water basins near Las Cruces, Dona Ana County, New Mexico This conclusion is consistent with the geologic and geophysical data which describe a thin crust, apparently devoid of features indicative of extensional-tectonics in the upper part of the lastic crust. 95 mWm(-2) results from some type of mass movement-heat transfer mechanism operating in the crust just below the elastic layer. It is suggested that the geothermal anomaly in the southern Jornada del Muerto (approx.

These high heat flows are rather enigmatic because in the immediate vicinities of the sites there is little evidence of Cenozoic volcanism or syn-rift extensional tectonics. Values increase from about 90 mWm(-2) in the northern part of the study area to about 125 mWm(-2) in the southern part. High heat flows are estimated for the region. The region of interest within the Jornada del Muerto is centered about 30 km east of the town of Truth or Consequences, and is approximately 60 km north-south by 30 km east-west. The Jornada del Muerto is a large basin located in the Rio Grande rift of south central New Mexico. Estimates of heat flow in deep petroleum tests within a large basin of the Rio Grande rift, which has suffered little syn-rift fracturing, may begin to provide clearer insight into the relationships between high heat flow and crustal thinning processes. Most heat flow data in rifts are uncertain largely because of hydrologic disturbances in regions of extensive fracturing.
