Description of the Book: Thermodynamic Data: Systematics and Estimation (Advances in Physical Geochemistry)

For Advertisment

Thermodynamic modelling of experimental or natural phase equilibria has become an integral part of petrology. The wide range of possible mineral compositions in natural rocks and the slow reaction kinetics that hinder direct experimentation make it necessary to have robust theoretical mixing models for interpolation and extrapolation. The contributing authors of Thermodynamic Data: Systematics and Estimation discuss, in detail, these various modelling methods and show how computer simulation of geochemical reactions enable experimentalists to explore processes that are difficult or impossible to reproduce in the laboratory.
