The continental masses we inhabit developed in response to the colossal forces of plate tectonics. Through compression and heating, rocks of the crust can experience fluid loss or melting. Movement of these fluids or magmas can, among other things, impact on the heat budget of Earth, the carbon and water cycles and the formation of ores in the crust. This project will utilize state-of-the-art scientific instruments and methods to greatly improve our understanding of these issues, which, in turn, will enhance our knowledge of how the Earth's crust develops. Research training and development will be provided through two PhD projects supported through this project.

我们居住的大陆块是在板块构造的巨大力量下发展起来的。通过压缩和加热，地壳的岩石可以经历流体损失或熔化。除其他外，这些流体或岩浆的运动可以影响地球的热量收支、碳和水循环以及地壳中的矿石形成。该项目将利用最先进的科学仪器和方法，大大提高我们对这些问题的认识，这反过来又将提高我们对地壳如何发展的认识。研究、培训和发展将通过该项目支持的两个博士项目提供。
