Comment:
This data set is a compilation of heat flow data of uncertain origin. References as cited in Global Heat Flow Database were incomplete and thus could not be verified. This data compilation contains: data of unknown origin, unpublished data, data which has no full reference information or data which were extracted from other database. The remaining short citation and its related problem are listed in columns 18 and 19.
