Figure 5
An example of object-based analysis. The upper left-hand figure represents a carbonate entity from the BaCarb3 sample. Its length can be visualized along the white arrows and its thickness along the grey ones. Its dip is measured in the orthogonal system defined by the subvolume. The lower left-hand figures illustrate the morphological evolution of this entity over time, as tracked by time-lapse CT scans. On the right-hand side, the graphs show the evolution of the studied geometric parameters along the three different temperature cycles. The increase in length and thickness of the pocket depicts the growing volume of melt over time, while the dip angle and flatness parameters remain more or less constant. |
