摘要
A computer program is presented based on a new up-to-date compilation of mineral and melt densities, compressibilities, and thermal expansivities, which can be used to calculate in-situ densities of solid assemblages of minerals and basaltic melts. This program is useful for quantitatively assessing buoyancy forces of melts, solids, and solid-liquid mixtures in the upper mantle.
