Figure 6
A visualization of the carbonate melt impregnation front in sample BaCarb1. Vertical projections of the cylindrical ROI are represented for eight tomographs over time. The carbonate source is located below the bottom of the image. With time, the melt blobs become more numerous and are located further from the initial layer. The plot on the right-hand side shows the distribution (arbitrary units) of voxels segmented as carbonate along the ROI. Once a porosity is filled, the elongation, flatness and dip of the associated pocket remain relatively constant over time as its volume grows. |
