Arc Basalt Simulator (ABS) version 3

Abstract: Arc Basalt Simulator (ABS) is a petrologic and geochemical simulation program for basalt to high-Mg andesite genesis in and above a subduction zone. ABS consists of three different calculation modules: (a) slab dehydration and melting along an appropriate subduction zone P-T path, (b) reaction of mantle peridotite with slab-derived melt or hydrous fluid migrating through the mantle wedge, and (c) melting of mantle wedge peridotite due to fluxing by this liquid. ABS is intended to be easy to use, requiring only a PC or Mac that can run Microsoft Excel. The download includes two files, the macro-enabled spreadsheet (.xlsm) and the tutorial (.pdf).

摘要：弧玄武岩模拟器（Arc Basalt Simulator，ABS）是一款用于俯冲带及之上区域玄武岩至高镁安山岩成因研究的岩石学与地球化学模拟程序。该程序包含三个独立的计算模块：（a）沿合适的俯冲带温压路径开展的板片脱水与熔融过程；（b）地幔橄榄岩与板片来源熔体或含水流体在地幔楔中运移时发生的反应；（c）该流体交代作用引发的地幔楔橄榄岩熔融过程。本模拟器设计得易于操作，仅需一台可运行微软Excel（Microsoft Excel）的PC或Mac电脑。其下载包包含两个文件：启用宏的电子表格（.xlsm格式）与教程文档（.pdf格式）。
