Abstract
⺠As the cooling rate is increased, concentrations of Al + Ca + Fe + Mg increase and Si + Na + K decrease in plagioclase favoring higher An and lower Ab + Or contents. ⺠Significant variations of pl-liqKd are observed by the comparison between isothermal and cooled charges. ⺠Crystal-melt exchange reaction has the potential to reveal the departure from equilibrium for plagioclase-bearing cooling magmas. ⺠Errors on estimates for thermometers, barometers, and hygrometers increase systematically with increasing cooling rate according to pl-liqKd variations.
