FIGURE 3. Variations in vp (a, d, g, j), vs (b, e, h, k), and Poisson’s ratio (c, f, i, l) as a function of temperature in the first (ac), second (df), third (gi), and fourth (jl) cycles of Run LPS9. The solid and open symbols represent the data in the heating and cooling runs, respectively. The lines in the graphs represent the first heating and cooling and second heating cycles (dashed line), second cooling and third heating cycles (thin broken line), and third cooling and fourth heating and cooling cycles (dotted line). The {partial}vp/{partial}T and {partial}vs/{partial}T values for each of these lines are shown in Table 4Go.

FIGURE 5. Lattice angle {gamma} as a function of anorthite content. The solid lines represent previously observed values for low and high plagioclases. The broken lines show the t1O – <t1m> values estimated from lattice angle {gamma}.

FIGURE 6. Average aluminum contents of the T1O (t1O) site and T1m, T2O, and T2m sites (<t1m>). The solid lines represent aluminum contents of low and high plagioclase (Kroll and Ribbe 1980).
