Summary The temperature-depth distribution was calculated to a depth of 70 km along the 520 km long Taratashskiy refraction profile crossing the Ural Mts., approximately along latitude 56°N. The steady-state model was solved numerically using the finite-difference method, the vertical distribution of heat production was derived from the observed seismic velocities. It was shown that at the Moho boundary, the mantle heat flow varied between 10 and 25 mWm−2, and the Moho temperature amounted to 300–550°C for the two versions studied.
