advected to shallow levels, producing low P/T metamorphism. crustal extension (orange): crustal extension via normal faulting leads to advection of heat to shallow levels, followed by cooling to a normal thermal gradient. oceanic extension--mid-ocean ridges (red-orange): convection carries heat to very shallow levels, where 7-km thick oceanic crust forms; hydrothermal circulation produces low P/T metamorphism. ophiolite soles (red): are thrust zones beneath very hot oceanic lithosphere emplaced

Dark clouds

overwhelming and astounding, as I took a sharp look I saw a brightly colored illuminating blue Flamingo statue sprouting water out of it's mouth.

washed forever away but another night sets touching the sandy shores of the Island of Maui.
