RUI: Fluid Migration Pathways and Fluid Evolution in the Central Appalachians

变形造山带的流体排出是一个重要的研究课题，受到了广泛的关注。这项研究的目的是研究阿巴拉契亚中部前陆褶皱冲断带的流体流动，确定流体运移路径以及流体成分和温度随时间的变化。对矿脉中发现的流体包裹体的研究将是确定区域流体化学、平衡温度和同位素组成的主要方法。收集的数据将纳入前陆水文和热力模型。

The expulsion of fluids from deforming orogenic belts is an important subject and has received considerable attention. The purpose of this study is to examine fluid flow in the central Appalachian foreland fold-thrust belt, determine fluid migration pathways and changes in fluid composition and temperature with time. Study of fluid inclusions found in veins will be the primary method used to determine regional fluid chemistry, equilibration temperatures and isotopic composition. Data gathered will be incorporated into foreland hydrologic and thermal models.
