Stable Mineral Assemblages in Metamorphic Rocks
This 81-slide PowerPoint presentation reviews the phase rule in terms of metamorphic systems, using the brucite-periclase system as an example. Binary and ternary chemographic diagrams are used to explain compatibility in mineral assemblages. The presentation covers ternary diagrams for complicated systems, ACF and AKF diagrams, projections from apical phases, and J.B. Thompson's A(K)FM diagram is used as an alternative tool to apply to pelitic rocks. Lastly, a set of rules is laid out to help c

Corals: Maintaining the Delicate Ocean Ecosystem
Most people think corals are stones, but they are actually little
animals which start off as mobile polyps. Once these polyps settle on
the sea-floor, they don’t move for the rest of their lives! The little
polyps secrete a calcium-carbonate which forms an armor around them.
Corals are an extremely integral part of the ecosystem in the sea. They

relationships with fish, bacte

Some made valuable contributions by presenting new ideas for debate. Others seemed to be merely obstructionist complainers or even rabble rousers just trying to make trouble.
