Research in fluid inclusion is in general not taught at universities, although their properties are useful indicators of many processes that take place in the mantle and crust. Fluids in rocks play an important role, and fluid inclusions are the only direct evidences of these geo-fluids in the geological past.
The short course will deal with the identification of fluid inclusions in minerals (petrography), and the analyses of the fluid (methods). We will look at experimental work and thermodynamic modelling of fluids. We will apply a series of software that is specially designed for the fluid inclusion studies.
The short course is gratis for academic participants, you only have to organize your accommodation and travel.
