Abstract

We provide a lithospheric-scale conductive thermal model of subsurface below the State of Brandenburg (Northeast German Basin (NEGB), Germany), represented in three variants: An original thermal model with the resolved Rupelian layer calculated using Geological Modelling System (GMS), a supplement to Noack et al. (2012); An original thermal model without the resolved Rupelian layer calculated using Geological Modelling System (GMS), a supplement to Noack et al. (2013); A reproduced thermal model without the resolved Rupelian layer calculated using the software GOLEM (Jacquey & Cacace, 2017). Both original and reproduced models cover the same area of 250 km in E-W direction and 210 km in N–S direction. The first two original models are discussed in the mentioned papers Noack et al. (2012) and Noack et al. (2013), whereas the third model is provided for reproducibility purposes. Models contain information on calculated temperatures and relevant physical properties from the quaternary layer down to the Lithosphere-Asthenosphere Boundary (LAB). There are two versions of the stratigraphic layering in the 3D structural model which helps to calculates the thermal fields: one with the Rupelian clay layers consisting of 15 layers and one without them consisting of 17 layers. The coordinate system used is Gauss Krueger zone 4. The model without the resolved Rupelian layer (variant 1) is a supplement to the following published paper: Sensitivity of 3D thermal models to the choice of boundary conditions and thermal properties: a case study for the area of Brandenburg (NE German Basin) The model with the resolved Rupelian layer (variant 2) is a supplement to another published paper: Influence of fluid flow on the regional thermal field: Results from 3D numerical modelling for the area of Brandenburg (North German Basin) In variant 3, we also provide results of our attempt at reproducing of the model from the variant 2. In addition, we provide input files for reproducibility. The contents and structure of the provided files are described in the Technical Information section.
