Quartz content (f quartz) is a prerequisite to accurately estimate soil thermal conductivity (λ) and ground heat fluxes (Peters-Lidard et al., 1998, Tarnawski et al., 2021).Because f quartz is not measured in routine soil inventories, it is commonly assumed to be equal to the percentage of sand in soil solids (f sand).While quartz is a predominant primary …
Despite the high thermal conductivity of quartz relative to methane hydrate, the largest thermal conductivity was measured in the mixture containing 33% hydrate rather than in hydrate-free sand.
