Role of Fluids in Crustal Processes
Water and other fluids play a vital role in the processes that shape the earth''s crust, possibly even influencing earthquakes and volcanism. Fluids affect the movement of chemicals and heat in the crust, and they are the major factor in the formation of hydrothermal ore deposits. Yet, fluids have been overlooked in many geologic investigations.
