    Theriak-Domino Exercise part of Petrology:Teaching Examples
    Dexter Perkins, University of North Dakota-Main Campus
    This multidimensional project involves using several different computer programs to calculate and interpret phase diagrams and pseudosections. So, students learn lots of skills at the same time. But, an overarching ...

    Making Good Looking Diagrams from Theriak-Domino Output part of Petrology:Teaching Examples
    Dexter Perkins, University of North Dakota-Main Campus
    This is a complementary exercise that follows "Using Theriak-Domino to Calculate Equilibrium Phase Diagrams." I have students do this because it brings closure to the other exercise and it teaches ...
