The role of water in the evolution of the continental crust

BWD Yardley - Journal of the Geological Society, 2009 - lyellcollection.org
Aqueous fluids have a profound influence on the evolution of the crust, both as agents of
chemical mass transfer and mineral reactions, and through modifying its rheology. This …
