Thermometers and barometers for volcanic systems

KD Putirka - Reviews in mineralogy and geochemistry, 2008 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Knowledge of temperature and pressure, however qualitative, has been central to our views

Activity–composition relations for phases in petrological calculations: an asymmetric multicomponent formulation

T Holland, R Powell - Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, 2003 - Springer

A petrologic assessment of internal zonation in granitic pegmatites

D London - Lithos, 2014 - Elsevier
Abstract Cameron et al.(1949) devised the nomenclature and delineated the patterns of

Ascent-driven crystallisation of dacite magmas at Mount St Helens, 1980–1986

J Blundy, K Cashman - Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, 2001 - Springer
We introduce a novel scheme that enables natural silicic glasses to be projected into the
synthetic system Qz–Ab–Or–H 2 O in order to relate variations in volcanic glass chemistry to …

Igneous thermometers and barometers based on plagioclase+ liquid equilibria: Tests of some existing models and new calibrations

KD Putirka - American Mineralogist, 2005 - degruyter.com
Although many formulations of plagioclase+ liquid equilibria have been calibrated in the last
decade, few models specifically address the issue of temperature (T) prediction. Moreover …
