  2. Geothermal gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_gradient

    Earth cutaway from core to exosphere Geothermal drill machine in Wisconsin, USA. Temperature within Earth increases with depth. Highly viscous or partially molten rock at temperatures between 650 and 1,200 °C (1,200 and 2,200 °F) are found at the margins of tectonic plates, increasing the geothermal gradient in the vicinity, but only the outer core is postulated to exist in a molten or fluid ...

  3. Ground source heat pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_source_heat_pump

    Ground-source heat pumps take advantage of the difference between the ambient temperature and the temperature at various depths in the ground. The thermal properties of the ground near the surface [2] [3] can be described as follows: In the surface layer to a depth of about 1 meter, the temperature is very sensitive to sunlight and weather.

  4. Minecraft modding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minecraft_modding

    Modding for the mobile and console versions of Minecraft on the Bedrock codebase is different as those versions are written in C++ rather than Java. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] Players who wish to mod their game on Bedrock codebase versions have a simpler process due to the version's built-in official support for "add-ons", which can be installed faster and ...

  5. Seasonal thermal energy storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasonal_thermal_energy...

    UTES (underground thermal energy storage), in which the storage medium may be geological strata ranging from earth or sand to solid bedrock, or aquifers. UTES technologies include: ATES (aquifer thermal energy storage). An ATES store is composed of a doublet, totaling two or more wells into a deep aquifer that is contained between impermeable ...

  6. Geologic temperature record - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geologic_temperature_record

    The geologic temperature record are changes in Earth's environment as determined from geologic evidence on multi-million to billion (10 9) year time scales. The study of past temperatures provides an important paleoenvironmental insight because it is a component of the climate and oceanography of the time.

  7. Pokémon Go - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pokémon_GO

    As players move within their real world surroundings, their avatars move within the game's map. Different Pokémon species reside in different areas of the world; for example, Water-type Pokémon are generally found near water. [13] When a player encounters a Pokémon, it may be viewed either in AR mode or with a live rendered, generic ...

  8. Lake stratification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_stratification

    Lake stratification is the tendency of lakes to form separate and distinct thermal layers during warm weather. Typically stratified lakes show three distinct layers: the epilimnion, comprising the top warm layer; the thermocline (or metalimnion), the middle layer, whose depth may change throughout the day; and the colder hypolimnion, extending to the floor of the lake.

  9. Thermocline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermocline

    A thermocline (also known as the thermal layer or the metalimnion in lakes) is a distinct layer based on temperature within a large body of fluid (e.g. water, as in an ocean or lake; or air, e.g. an atmosphere) with a high gradient of distinct temperature differences associated with depth.
