Abstract
The updated thermal database considers México's continental and offshore zones. The new heat flow values are mainly located along the Baja California Peninsula and central México. From the new data, we defined the highest and the lowest heat flow values as 1263 mW/m2 and 4 mW/m2, respectively. This updated heat flow database helped us to identify regions with thermal anomalies that show values above average continental heat flow. More importantly, these high heat flow areas do not correspond to the known Mexican geothermal fields.
