The objective of this research proposal is to advance the theory and techniques of metamorphic petrology, and to apply these in concert with allied techniques to solve broader problems in Earth Science. Metamorphic petrology is a specialized branch of geology that is concerned with changes in the mineralogy and textures of rocks in response to burial and heating in the Earth's lithosphere. It provides unique and essential information for understanding Earth evolution and behavior. Reading the record of metamorphic rocks allows us to piece together the complex history of Earth's plate interactions through time, to account for geophysical features deep in the unexposed Earth, and to understand the environment in which ore deposits form.

这项研究计划的目标是推进变质岩石学的理论和技术，并将其与相关技术相结合，以解决地球科学中更广泛的问题。变质岩石学是地质学的一个专门分支，研究岩石的矿物学和结构因地球岩石圈的埋藏和加热而发生的变化。它为理解地球的演化和行为提供了独特而重要的信息。通过阅读变质岩的记录，我们可以拼凑出地球板块随着时间的推移相互作用的复杂历史，解释未暴露的地球深处的地球物理特征，并了解矿床形成的环境。
