Thermal Analysis in Earth Science: Experience and Expectations

  • Chapter
Thermal Analysis

Abstract

Thermal analysis in earth science is a relatively mature field with a huge background of experience. Throughout its development thermal analysis has been preoccupied with characterization of rocks and minerals, the primary use of thermal analysis in earth science. The clays, now largely a standardized part of ceramics studies, claimed a major part of the early work. Recently, however, development of thermal analysis in the area of earth science has slackened.
