Modelling open Earth systems

We hope soon to introduce THERMOCALC-powered open-system modelling facilities, based as always on the phase relations encapsulated in the HPx-eos. These facilities will be standalone, but will also link into the Underworld geodynamic modelling toolkit.

Eleanor is trying to wrap her brain around how to handle chemically-open systems in solid-Earth geoscience as a fully general problem, and bridge the communication gap with her colleagues in software development and geodynamics. More news later this week…
