Title: Standard MELTS in alphaMELTS 2?
Post by: scotthull on May 22, 2023, 12:55:19 PM
I recently downloaded alphaMELTS 2 and noticed that the standard version of MELTS is not listed--only Rhyolite MELTS and pMELTS.  Can anyone tell me where the standard version is?  I have a very vague possible recollection of standard MELTS being merged into pMELTS.

Hi Scott,

Sorry I missed this somehow. (Spam signups were getting out of hand again so I upgraded things, which worked for the spam control but still ironing out a few wrinkles.)

Anyway the standard version of MELTS became Rhyolite-MELTS. Despite the name it's good for the same range of compositions and PT conditions as MELTS, and better for granitic compositions.

For more details, see the second Q&A here: https://melts.ofm-research.org/index.html
