Course Objective |
It is aimed to give to the students the general issues of interpretation of magmatic processes including mantle melting, magma formation and differentiation on the basis of phase diagrams of experimental petrology, of numerical modeling of these processes by using major-trace elements and isotopes of the magmatic rocks. The students will be able to modeling numerically the magmatic processes of melting, crystallization and contamination, and to compare these results with the natural examples. |
