Descrição do livro
Experimental Magmatology and Volcanology is an advanced, substantial, and practice-oriented science book for readers who want to understand how magmatic systems work and why volcanoes shift eruptive style. This is not a collection of trivia and not a simplified handbook: experimentation is the backbone that connects chemistry, physics, and natural observations into one coherent narrative. From phase diagrams to eruptive dynamics, the book guides you through the most important step in modern volcanology: turning a natural problem into a testable experimental question, designing a credible protocol (control of pressure, temperature, fO₂, and volatiles), analyzing products (glasses, crystals, textures, bubbles), and translating experimental outcomes into constraints on real magmatic behavior. You will see why activity, fugacity, kinetics, decompression, nucleation, and fragmentation are not academic formalities, but concrete tools to interpret lava flows, fountains, eruption columns, and pyroclastic density currents. The book also focuses on methods and apparatus, laboratory best practices (replicates, blanks, traceability, uncertainty budgets), and the bridge between experiments, numerical modeling, and monitoring data. Written for university students, serious enthusiasts, geologists, and professionals, this volume develops a rare skill: reconstructing the physical story of a volcano through robust chains of evidence—without misleading oversimplifications.
