The determination of metamorphic temperatures and pressures is fundamental for understanding the petrotectonic histories of mountain belts. Quantifying metamorphic fluid compositions, rates, and processes of heat transfer through the crust, rock deformation mechanisms, and rates of tectonic burial and exhumation are just a few examples of applications that require pressure–temperature estimates.
