Phase Equilibria in Metamorphic Rocks Thermodynamic Background and Petrological Applications
This books aims to provide an introduction to various techniques to determine the pressure and temperature conditions of formation of metamorphic rocks. The necessary thermodynamic foundations and principles, and the basis of geothermobarometric methods, are carefully derived. Special emphasis is pl...
