Request a sales quoteMass Transport in Magmatic Systems describes the properties and processes of these natural occurrences, including a description and discussions of how properties can be used for quantitative description of mass and energy transport on, and in, Earth and terrestrial planets. As the experimentally obtained chemical and physical properties of magma is scattered across literature, this book provides a comprehensive volume on the topic. Moreover, links between properties and processes are rarely appreciated. This makes it challenging for a non-experimentalist to access, evaluate, and apply such data.
- Incorporates information from a range of subdisciplines, from materials science to geology, geophysics and geochemistry
- Highlights links between properties and processes of magmatic systems
- Presents chapters that can stand on their own, with practical applications and a section for non-expert readers

Secondary readers would likely be in glass and materials science. In that environment, the segments of the book describing properties of melts and melt and mineral systems will be of primary interest.
