Advances in Fluid Inclusions and Geofluids

Dear Colleagues,

Geofluids plays a very important role in the transmission and exchange of materials and energy, mineralization and oil/gas formation, and climate and environmental changes, and is one of the most important frontiers of geoscience research . Fluid and melt inclusions are the only specimens of geological fluids preserved in nature, and they are irreplaceable in the study of geological fluids.

This Special Issue, entitled "Advances in Fluid Inclusions and Geofluids", will mainly reflect the latest research presented at the 21st biennial national conference of "Fluid Inclusions and Geofluids" (Oct, Guilin, China), and also welcomes manuscripts with the same theme from around the world. The contents of this Special Issue include fluid inclusion and geofluids research in hydrothermal metallogenic systems, oil and gas reservoir forming systems, the epigenetic process (salt), the magmatic process, the metamorphic process, synthetic inclusions, and the P-V-T-X properties of geofluids, etc.

We hope that the publication of this Special Issue will provide examples in many related geological fields, present new methods and ideas , and promote research into fluid inclusions and Geofluids
