This course is focused on metamorphic processes and the interpretation of metamorphic rocks. Topics will include: phase equilibrium (and disequilibrium) in mineral systems, metamorphic reactions, calculation of P-T conditions and P-T-time paths, the tectonic context of metamorphic rocks, metamorphic fluids, and deformation-metamorphism interactions. The course is intended for graduate students and upper-level undergraduates.
