Water plays a critical role in erosion and sediment transport and this relationship is most
evident in the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, a region characterized by …

All available volume and elasticity data for the garnet end-members grossular, pyrope,
almandine and spessartine have been re-evaluated for both internal consistency and for …

Upon exhumation and cooling, contrasting compressibilities and thermal expansivities
induce differential strains (volume mismatches) between a host crystal and its inclusions …

Metamorphic rocks are the records of plate tectonic processes whose reconstruction relies
on correct estimates of the pressures and temperatures (PT) experienced by these rocks …

The mineralogy and chemical compositions of inclusions in diamonds are the primary
source of information about the environment in which diamonds grow and help constrain the …

EntraPT is a web-based application for elastic geobarometry freely accessible at the
“Fiorenzo Mazzi” experimental mineralogy lab website (http://www. mineralogylab …

Residual pressure can be preserved in mineral inclusions, eg quartz-in-garnet, after
exhumation due to differential expansion between inclusion and host crystals. Raman …

Elastic thermobarometry of host-inclusion systems for back-calculating pressure (P) and
temperature (T) conditions of inclusion entrapment relies on the assumption that the …

The elastic interaction between an inclusion and its host is often employed to study
metamorphic processes based on the assumption that the host is not affected by processes …

Current models for elastic geobarometry have been developed with the assumption that the
host and/or inclusion minerals are elastically isotropic. This assumption has limited …
