Abstract
Correlation coefficients are calculated from the available geothermic data for the sedimentary basins of India to reveal some significant association between: (1) heat flow and thermal conductivity, (2) heat flow and geothermal gradient, (3) geothermal gradient and thermal conductivity, and (4) heat flow and related crustal thickness. The observed negative correlationship between heat flow and thermal conductivity for all Indian sedimentary basins suggests corresponding changes in crustal thickness.
