Findet dieses Semester nicht statt.
3 KP3PC. A. Heinrich, T. Driesner
KurzbeschreibungBlock course involving lectures, exercises and practical application of inclusion petrography, microthermometry, Raman and LA-ICPMS microanlysis
LernzielPractical ability to carry out a meaningful fluid or melt inclusion study in the fields of geochemistry, petrology or resource geology, involving problem definition, research planning, quantitative measurements using a combination of techniques, critical interpretation and correct documentation of results.
SkriptHandouts with extensive list of primary literature available
LiteraturGoldstein and Reynolds (1994): CD available for in-house use
651-4082-00LFluids and Mineral Deposits2 KP2SC. A. Heinrich, T. Driesner, B. Lamy-Chappuis, O. Laurent, A. Quadt Wykradt-Hüchtenbruck, J. P. Weis
KurzbeschreibungPresentations and literature discussions on current research topics in crustal fluids and mineral resources research.
LernzielFachvertiefung, gemeinsame Literaturarbeit und Diskussion laufender Bachelor-, Master- und Doktoratsprojekte im Bereich Fluide und Erzlagerstätten
InhaltThemen zur Hydrothermalgeochemie, Modellierung von Fluidprozessen, Mikroananlytik, Isotopen-Tracing von hydrothermalen Transportprozessen und der Bildung von Erzlagertätten
Voraussetzungen / BesonderesRegister in MyStudies and send mail to michael.schirra@erdw.ethz.ch, to be placed on distributor for the irregular program
651-4221-00LNumerical Modelling of Ore Forming Hydrothermal Processes3 KP2GT. Driesner
KurzbeschreibungIntroduction to computer tools for the simulation of hydrothermal processes. This includes fluid flow modelling and thermodynamic modelling of hydrothermal reactions. The computer programs are handed out to the students and can be run on normal PCs. No programming knowledge is necessary.
LernzielLearn how to use the simulation programs HYDROTHERM and HCh to explore how hydrothermal systems work.
InhaltIntroduction to computer tools for the simulation of hydrothermal processes: HYDROTHERM for fluid flow simulations, HCh for thermodynamic modeling. While learning the respective computer programs is an essential part of the course, the emphasis will be on using these tools to learn how the physics and chemistry of hydrothermal system actually work.
SkriptComputer programs and course material will be distributed during the course.
