Abstract

In their analysis of temperature data, Watson and Westaway (2020) make substantial use of initial open information provided by the UK Geoenergy Observatory: Glasgow Geothermal Energy Research Field Site. They also offer criticisms on site location, heat resource size, design and costs; however, these criticisms appear to be based on a misunder-standing of the purpose of the Glasgow Observatory. In order to mitigate misapprehensions for future Observatory users, we write in reply. The Glasgow Observatory has been developed as a multidisciplinary research facility; it is not a demonstrator of maximum mine water heat resource, which is by implication what Watson and Westaway (2020) would deem a success.

关于“格拉斯哥地热能研究现场的钻孔温度测井：城市发展导致地表温度过去变化的记录”的讨论，《苏格兰地质学杂志》，56134-152，https://doi.org/10.1144/sjg2019-033

在对温度数据的分析中，Watson和Westaway（2020）充分利用了英国地热观测站提供的初始公开信息：格拉斯哥地热能研究现场。他们还对场地位置、热资源规模、设计和成本提出了批评；然而，这些批评似乎是基于对格拉斯哥天文台宗旨的误解。为了减少未来天文台用户的误解，我们写信回复。格拉斯哥天文台已发展成为一个多学科研究设施；它并不是最大矿井水热资源的证明，这意味着Watson和Westaway（2020）认为这是成功的。

期刊介绍： Although published only since 1965, the Scottish Journal of Geology has a long pedigree. It is the joint publication of the Geological Society of Glasgow and the Edinburgh Geological Society, which prior to 1965 published separate Transactions: from 1860 in the case of Glasgow and 1863 for Edinburgh. Traditionally, the Journal has acted as the focus for papers on all aspects of Scottish geology and its contiguous areas, including the surrounding seas. The publication policy has always been outward looking, with the Editors encouraging review papers and papers on broader aspects of the Earth sciences that cannot be discussed solely in terms of Scottish geology. The diverse geology of Scotland continues to provide an important natural laboratory for the study of earth sciences; many seminal studies in geology have been carried out on Scottish rocks, and over the years the results of much of this work had been published in the Journal and its predecessors. The Journal fully deserves its high reputation worldwide and intends to maintain its status in the front rank of publications in the Earth sciences.
