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
of geology since at least the early 19th century. In 1822, for example, Charles Daubeny …

A new clinopyroxene-liquid barometer, and implications for magma storage pressures under Icelandic rift zones

DA Neave, KD Putirka - American Mineralogist, 2017 - degruyter.com
Pressure is one of the key variables that controls magmatic phase equilibria. However,
estimating magma storage pressures from erupted products can be challenging. Various …

Ambient and excess mantle temperatures, olivine thermometry, and active vs. passive upwelling

KD Putirka, M Perfit, FJ Ryerson, MG Jackson - Chemical Geology, 2007 - Elsevier
Mantle temperatures provide a key test of the mantle plume hypothesis, and olivine-liquid
equilibria provide perhaps the most certain means of estimating mantle temperatures. Here …

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 …

The mafic rocks of the Bushveld Complex, South Africa, were emplaced into a stable
cratonic shield some 2.06 by ago, and have remained remarkably well preserved from …

Mantle potential temperatures at Hawaii, Iceland, and the mid‐ocean ridge system, as inferred from olivine phenocrysts: Evidence for thermally driven mantle plumes

KD Putirka - Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
