Geology Fluid Inclusion Homogenization Temperature Calculator
Inventory homogenization measurements within independently same-generation inclusion family; not trapping temperature without pressure correction. Caller independently establishes matching units, evidence, method edition and applicability; output is not compliance, diagnosis, work-safety approval, geological identity or validated hazard prediction.
Description
Fluid-inclusion homogenization temperatures are observations made under a matched inclusion-family and heating protocol.
Fluid-inclusion homogenization temperatures are observations made under a matched inclusion-family and heating protocol.1
A median of a selected family summarizes those observations without supplying pressure correction or entrapment temperature. Use this tool to calculate fluid inclusion homogenization temperature from the supplied measurements and assumptions.
When to use Geology Fluid Inclusion Homogenization Temperature Calculator
Use this tool to calculate fluid inclusion homogenization temperature from the supplied measurements and assumptions. Establish the measurement units, sampled interval, calibration or model edition and geological assumptions before entering data.
How to use Geology Fluid Inclusion Homogenization Temperature Calculator and understand its results
- Establish the measurement units, sampled interval, calibration or model edition and geological assumptions before entering data.
- Enter observedHomogenizationTemperaturesC, callerVerifiedInclusionFamilyFlags, using the field meanings and rules below, then run the tool.
- Read matchedFamilyTemperaturesC, familyMedianHomogenizationC. Interpret the fields using their units, signs and evidence conventions below.
- If input validation fails, correct the reported field and run again. Before applying the result, check reference scope, model assumptions and any missing evidence or placeholder values.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| observedHomogenizationTemperaturesC | Observed homogenization temperatures c | list of number | Required |
| callerVerifiedInclusionFamilyFlags | Caller verified inclusion family flags; binary 0/1 under the definitions below; caller assertion or measurement requiring independent evidence | list of number | Required |
Enter nonempty aligned finite homogenization temperatures and binary independently verified family flags. Select only flagged observations, require at least one, sort those temperatures and return their median plus the selected list in original order. An even selection uses the mean of the middle two sorted values.
selected=temperatures where familyFlag=1; representative=median(selected) Use the exact units, boundary rules, ordering and missing-evidence conventions above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| matchedFamilyTemperaturesC | Matched Family Temperatures C; follow the units, sign, ordering and evidence convention stated above | list of number |
| familyMedianHomogenizationC | Family Median Homogenization C; follow the units, sign, ordering and evidence convention stated above | number |

}Limitations and assumptions
A median of a selected family summarizes those observations without supplying pressure correction or entrapment temperature. Interpretation depends on the units, sampling scope and exact model described above.
All listed fields require explicit values. Unexpected fields, incorrect types, nonfinite numbers and sparse evidence arrays fail validation; the specific bounds and alignment requirements are stated above. Extremely large inputs or outputs can also be rejected. An input error is distinct from a successful result reporting false, no matches or missing evidence.
