The pressure dependence of the zirconium‐in‐rutile thermometer (2007, methodology): “7, ‘samana’ are eclogites from Samana in the Dominican Republic, with a designated temperature of 410 C (Zack et al., 2004b), but the box is 520–530 C.”
Rutile crystals as potential trace element and isotope mineral standards for microanalysis (2009, methodology): “(1) Nowadays, one of the most important applications of rutile in petrological studies is as a geothermometer, as Zr is temperature dependent in this mineral ( Zack et al., 2004a; Watson et al.,”
New thermodynamic models and revised calibrations for the Ti-in-zircon and Zr-in-rutile thermometers (2007, background): “The Ti content of zircon coexisting with rutile or other Ti-rich phases and the Zr content of rutile coexisting with zircon or other Zr-rich phases has a strong dependence on temperature (T) (Degeling 2003; Troitzsch and Ellis 2004, 2005; Zack et al. 2004; Watson et al. 2006).”
Rutile solubility in H2O, H2O–SiO2, and H2O–NaAlSi3O8 fluids at 0.7–2.0 GPa and 700–1000 °C: Implications for mobility of nominally insoluble elements (2008, background): “…1998), and its common occurrence makes it useful for net-transfer and exchange thermobarometry (e.g., Bohlen et al., 1983; Manning and Bohlen, 1991; Zack et al., 2004a; Watson and Harrison, 2005; Watson et al., 2006; Zack and Luvizottow, 2006; Tomkins et al., 2007; Tropper and Manning, in press)…”
