1. Introduction
Empirically calibrated thermometers and barometers are specially well suited for estimating
PT
equilibrium P-T conditions in mineral assemblages that involve complex phases whose mixing
CE
properties are not fully understood (e.g., Schmidt, 1992; Patiño-Douce, 1993; McCarthy and PatiñoDouce, 1998). Recent empirical calibrations of clinopyroxene-melt and calcic amphibole-only
AC
thermobarometers (e.g., Ridolfi and Renzulli, 2012; Masotta et al., 2013; Mollo et al., 2013) document the interest of these methods for constraining P-T conditions of magma crystallization (see also review in Putirka, 2008).
Calcic amphibole can be an important constituent of a large diversity of hydrous, basic to intermediate, metamorphic and igneous rocks (e.g., Robinson et al., 1982; Wones and Gilbert, 1982; Spear, 1993; Martin, 2007; Molina et al., 2009; Bucher and Grapes, 2011). In the metamorphic environment, aluminous hornblende-bearing assemblages are stable over a wide P-T field that extends from amphibolite- to granulite- and high-T eclogite-facies conditions (e.g., Poli, 1991; Yaxley and Green, 1994; Ernst and Liu, 1998; Molina and Poli, 2000; Bucher and Grapes, 2011). At lower temperatures, the hornblendic amphibole is replaced by sodic-calcic amphibole at relatively high-P conditions (medium-T eclogite- and albite-epidote amphibolite-facies; e.g., Poli, 1991, 1993;
3
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT Schimidt, 1992, 1993; Ernst and Liu, 1998; Molina and Poli, 1998; Bucher and Grapes, 2011) and by actinolite at lower-pressure greeschist-facies conditions (e.g., Spear, 1993; Bucher and Grapes, 2011). In alkaline igneous systems, kaersutite and high-Ti pargasite are common in highly silica-depleted
PT
magmatic rocks as foidites, basanites and camptonites, and in alkali basalts to hawaiites and mildly alkalic trachytoids (Martin, 2007; Molina et al., 2009); whereas in subalkaline compositions, the
SC RI
stability of calcic amphiboles, mostly lower-Ti hornblende, is restricted to more siliceous magmatic rocks that range from andesites to metaluminous rhyolites (e.g., Sisson and Grove, 1993; Barclay and
NU
Carmichael, 2004; Molina et al., 2009).
Because this widespread occurrence, numerous amphibole-based thermobarometric expressions have
MA
been proposed: garnet-amphibole-plagioclase-quartz barometer (Kohn and Spear, 1989, 1990; Dale et al., 2000); amphibole-plagioclase-epidote barometer (Plyusnina, 1982); amphibole-plagioclase-quartz barometer (Bhadra and Bhattacharya, 2007); plagioclase-amphibole barometer (Fershtater, 1990); Al-
ED
in-amphibole barometer for granitioids (e.g., Hammarstrom and Zen, 1986; Johnson and Rutherford,
PT
1989; Schmidt, 1992; Anderson and Smith, 1995); semiquantitative Al-in-amphibole thermobarometer for MORB compositions (Ernst and Liu, 1998); amphibole/liquid Na-K exchange thermometer (Helz,
CE
1979); edenite-quartz-tremolite-albite and edenite-albite-richterite-anorthite thermometers (Holland and Blundy, 1994); and calcic amphibole-only thermobarometers for igneous rocks (Ridolfi et al.,
AC
2010; Ridolfi and Renzulli, 2012). Despite this great effort, there is still some room for further improvement of amphibole thermobarometry using empirical approaches. First, an experimentally based calibration of the plagioclase /amphibole Al-Si partitioning barometer from Fershtater (1990) has not been done yet, although it may represent an interesting complement to garnet-amphibole-plagioclase-quartz and amphibole-plagioclase-quartz barometry as neither garnet- nor quartz-saturation is required. Second, even though numerous mineral/liquid Mg partitioning thermometers have been proposed (e.g., Roeder and Emslie, 1970; Beattie, 1993; Sugawara, 2000; Gudfinnsson and Presnall, 2001; Putirka, et al. 2007; Putirka, 2008), the capabilities for thermometric purposes of the partitioning of Mg between amphibole and liquid have not been explored yet.

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT In this work, we explore pressure, temperature and phase composition dependencies of the Al-Si partitioning between plagioclase and amphibole, and the Mg partitioning between amphibole and liquid using robust regression methods based on MM-estimators and derive three new
PT
thermobarometric expressions. A compositional database with 92 amphibole-plagioclase pairs and 148 amphibole-glass pairs compiled from experiments in the literature is used for calibrating and testing
SC RI
the thermobarometric expressions. Applications to selected examples of metamorphic and igneous rocks are also discussed.

2. Experimental database and data selection
For this study, an amphibole-plagioclase-glass compositional database has been created with
MA
experiments compiled from the literature (Appendixes A and B from the electronic supplementary material). It contains experimental runs with a duration > 240 h at 650-800 ºC, > 120 h at 830-890 ºC,
ED
> 40 h at 900-1000 ºC and > 20 h at > 1000 ºC. Temperature conditions range from 650 to 1050 ºC for
PT
amphibole-plagioclase pairs and from 800 to 1100 ºC for amphibole-liquid pairs. Amphibole-plagioclase pairs presenting absolute deviations in estimated amphibole-plagioclase
CE
temperatures (edenite-quartz-tremolite-albite (Eqn. HB94-A) and edenite-albite-richterite-anorthite (Eqn. HB94-B) thermometers; Holland and Blundy, 1994) < 2.5s (1s ≈ 40 ºC) were selected for fitting
AC
the barometric expression (Fig. 1). Data selection for amphibole-glass pairs was carried out using constraints imposed from
and
relationships (abbreviations in Table 1).
These parameters show poor correlation with temperature (Figs. 2A-B) and are well suited for the detection of analytical problems in glass analyses (e.g., Na loss during glass analyses and imprecise determination of Ti in high-silica glasses). We selected only those data for which
and
values range, respectively, from -9 to 4 kJ and from -12 to 6.1 kJ (Figs. 2A-C). Thus, we excluded 12 data (ca. 7.5% of the total) with values lying outside these ranges (Fig. 2C). The selected experimental database comprises 92 amphibole-plagioclase pairs and 148 amphiboleglass pairs (Tables 2 and 3). Around 70% of the data (60 amphibole-plagioclase pairs and 102 amphibole-glass pairs) were employed for fitting the thermobarometric expressions (calibration data
5
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT set), whereas the rest of selected data was used for testing the derived expressions. The number of amphibole-glass pairs used in this work is appreciably higher than that employed recently for calibrating amphibole-only thermobarometric and chemometric expressions by Ridolfi et
PT
al. (2010) for subalkaline systems (9 to 45 data) and by Ridolfi and Renzulli (2012) for both alkaline
SC RI
and subalkaline systems (20 to 61 data). The larger number of data permits, as previously mentioned, to split the compositional database into two groups (calibration and test data sets) that allow us to perform a statistical test of the accuracy and precision of the calibrated expressions. On the other hand,
NU
the database also includes low-temperature amphibole-plagioclase pairs that make it possible to extend the application of the plagioclase-amphibole barometer derived in this work to subsolidus
MA
assemblages.
3. Thermodynamic formulation: thermobarometers based on element partitioning
ED
In this work, we present thermobarometric expressions based on empirical relationships between
PT
major-element partition coefficients, pressure, temperature, and phase compositions. Below, it is shown how the use of partition coefficients, instead of compositions of a single-phase as in
CE
amphibole-only thermobarometry (e.g., Ridolfi et al., 2010; Ridolfi and Renzulli, 2012), permits to get relatively simple thermobarometric expressions with a relatively small number of fitting parameters
AC
that account for compositional dependences of partition coefficients. Since the pioneering studies by Ramberg and De Vore (1951), numerous thermometers and barometers have been developed that are based on the partitioning of elements between coexisting phases (e.g., Ganguly and Saxena, 1987, and references therein). The expressions include both mineral/liquid partition coefficients —e.g., olivine/liquid Mg partitioning thermometer (Roeder and Emslie, 1970; Leeman, 1978; Beattie, 1993; Sugawara, 2000; Gudfinnsson and Presnall, 2001; Putirka et al., 2007); spinel/liquid thermometers (Ariskin and Nikolaev, 1996; Ariskin and Barmina, 1999); clinopyroxene/liquid Al partitioning barometer (Putirka, 2008) — and mineral/mineral partition coefficients —e.g., orthopyroxene/clinopyroxene Na partitioning thermometer (Brey and Köhler, 1990); many thermometers based on the Fe2+-Mg partitioning between coexisting ferromagnesian phases (e.g., Ganguly and Saxena, 1987, Krogh-Ravna and Paquin, 2003, and references therein);

In addition, significant pressure dependence has been detected for
PT
clinopyroxene/plagioclase Ca-Na partitioning in ultramafic rocks (Borghini et al., 2011) and for clinopyroxene/liquid Na partitioning (Villiger et al., 2007). Two-element partition coefficients have
SC RI
also been used for the discussion of mineral-silicate liquid compositional relationships —e.g., amphibole/liquid Si-Al partitioning (Sisson and Grove, 1993); plagioclase/liquid Ca-Na partitioning (Sisson and Grove, 1993; Villiger et al., 2007); Si-Mg, Fe-Mg and Ca-Al partitioning between liquid
NU
and ferropericlase, MgSi-perovskite and majoritic garnet (Trønnes and Frost, 2002).
MA
The thermodynamic basis for element partitioning between two coexisting phases has been thoroughly discussed in the literature (e.g., Saxena, 1973; Perchuk, 1977; Hanson and Langmuir, 1981; Langmuir and Hanson, 1981; Ulmer, 1989). A thermodynamic expression for the partition coefficient of an

When two cations with different valence states (e.g., Si4+-Al3+, Si4+-Mg2+, Ca2+-Al3+ or Ca2+-Na+) are considered, expression (3b) is still valid, even tough relation (2b) could not be related to a simple exchange reaction (see Trønnes and Frost, 2002, for further discussion). An equivalent thermodynamic treatment can be done using oxides, MO, and mineral end-members, MF (where F is an inert framework), as components because the three approaches are related to each other by appropriate formation reactions, i.e., by appropriate definitions of standard states as stated by Navrotsky (1978). Equilibrium relationships expressed in terms of M (or MO) and MF components can be easily transformed to each other in more simple instances. Thus, for example, the partitioning of MgO between olivine and liquid can also be treated in terms of the formation reaction of forsterite component in olivine:

CE
equilibria involving more complex phases, there are not simple relations between M and phase component treatments because various independent phase components contribute to the total content
AC
of component M. For instance, total Na content in clinopyroxene depends on the extent of acmite (NaFe3+Si2O6) and jadeite (NaAlSi2O6) substitutions and, therefore,
-pressure relationships are
significantly affected by oxygen fugacity at fO2 > FMQ (Villiger et al., 2007). When reactions based on the partitioning of elements between coexisting phases are used for thermobarometric purposes, the compositional dependence of partition coefficients must be empirically corrected. In some cases, relatively simple expressions relating partition coefficients to temperature, pressure and phase compositions can be deduced from constraints imposed by empirical relationships. For instance, Perchuk (1977) showed significant correlation of Mg partition coefficients for garnet and biotite and for garnet and cordierite with their corresponding Fe2+-Mg partition coefficients, whereas Ariskin and Nikolaev (1996) derived thermometric expressions based on

Other approaches propose to perform the regression analysis using pressure or temperature as dependent variable (e.g., Putirka, 2008).

emphasis is put on the dependence of the variable of interest, temperature or pressure, on the rest of variables. The first procedure is followed in this work as it was found to give more accurate results.
4. Regression methods
10
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 4.1. Robust regression methods Robust regression methods must be used when outlying observations are present (e.g., Maronna et al., 2006). In general, three types of outliers are distinguished (e.g., Rousseeuw and Leroy, 2003), shown in
PT
Figure 3A: 1) vertical outliers: outlying observations in the values of the dependent variable, thus having
SC RI
large residuals; 2) bad leverage points: outlying observations in the values of the independent variables and located far from the true regression line; and 3) good leverage points: outlying observations in the values of the independent variables, but located close to the regression line. Ordinary least square (OLS) estimations
NU
of intercept and slope are affected by the presence of bad leverage points, whereas vertical outliers affect, mostly, OLS estimations of the intercept. The presence of good leverage points does not affect OLS
MA
estimations, but it deflates the estimated standard errors impacting, therefore, on statistical inference. To alleviate the impact of outliers, Huber (1973) introduced robust regression methods based on
ED
maximum-likelihood estimators (M-estimators) that are robust to vertical outliers. However, they are not robust to bad leverage points and can fail when clusters of outliers occur due to a masking effect, namely
PT
one outlier can mask the presence of another (see Rousseeuw and van Zomeren, 1990; Verardi and Croux, 2009). These drawbacks have been properly solved by the MM-estimators introduced by Yohai (1987) —
CE
the MM refers to the fact that multiple M-estimations are performed during computation. These estimators
AC
combine high efficiency1 that guarantees comparatively low variance and high breakdown point2 that guarantees a large resistance to outliers. The superiority of MM-estimators over OLS and M-estimators can be illustrated by means of a simple numerical example. Let be an X-Y population consisting of 20 data that approximately obey the expression:
, and 10 outliers (i.e., 33% of the total), and calculate X-Y relationships
using OLS and robust M- and MM-estimators. The results displayed in Figure 3A show that only the MMestimator gets the solution, whereas estimations based on OLS and robust M-estimators fail because the presence of multiple leverage points and vertical outliers. 1
An estimator T2 of a parameter θ is said to be more efficient than a second estimator of the same parameter, T1, if and it is usually measured by the relative efficiency of T2 with respect to T1, (e.g., Dekking et al., 2005, Chapter 20). 2 The breakdown point is the smallest fraction of outliers that can be admitted in a population without substantial impact on the estimate (Andersen, 2008); e.g., an estimator that yields correct parameter estimates in populations contaminated with up to 50% of outliers has a breakdown point of 50%.
11
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 4.2. Robust methods for outlier detection When a population is contaminated by a set of outliers, it is also necessary to use robust methods to detect them. As noted by Rousseeuw and van Zomeren (1990), the classical method for outlier detection can fail
PT
to find outliers when there are several outliers because it is based on the sample mean and covariance
SC RI
matrix, which are, in turn, affected by the outliers. In order to detect the outliers, these authors proposed a graphical tool (Fig. 3B) that plots the robust standardized residuals3 on the vertical axis fort identifying vertical outliers and, on the horizontal axis, a measure of the outlyingness of the independent variables
NU
given by a robust Mahalanobis distance4.
MA
4.3. Calibration procedure of the thermobarometric expressions Robust regression methods along with regression diagnostics for outlier detection must be used for calibrating thermometric and barometric expressions (e.g., Powell, 1985). Outliers can be caused by
ED
experimental errors that include errors in reproducing P-T conditions in the laboratory, lack of attainment
PT
of equilibrium during a run or errors related to compositional measurements (Putirka, 2008). However, they can also appear simply because intrinsic limitations of empirical, linear in many cases, models

Linear expressions of
with pressure, temperature and phase compositions were derived by
robust regression methods based on MM-estimators using an algorithm implemented in Stata software by Verardi and Croux (2009). The algorithm is called in Stata using the command "mmregress". The algorithm computes, invoking "initial" option, a preliminary S-estimator, i.e., a set of regression parameters that minimizes the scale parameter
. Once the S-estimator is obtained, a MM-estimator is computed by
applying an iteratively reweighted OLS algorithm up to convergence using the 3
value obtained in the
The robust standardized residual is the residual divided by the scale parameter, , a robust estimator of the standard error, (e.g. Verardi and Croux, 2009). 4 The Mahalanobis distance is a measure of the distance of an individual data point to the centre of a multivariate distribution. For a population with n data and p independent variables, the Mahalanobis distance is defined as where is the ith row vector of matrix , is the vector of the centroid of the population and is the covariance matrix of the independent variables; in order to get a robust estimation of , the two latter parameters must be estimated robustly (e.g., Verardi and Croux, 2009).

In summary, we have selected those thermobarometric expressions that meet the following conditions: 1) low number of outliers (in fact, one or zero); 2) a precision comparable to that of other thermobarometric

The proportions of phase components are given by expressions reported in Table 1. Amphibole compositions in amphibole-plagioclase assemblages are mostly tschermakite (52% of the data), magnesiohornblende (28%) and magnesiohastingsite (12%), whereas kaersutite, ferrohornblende and sodic-calcic amphibole represent, altogether, only ca. 7.6% of the total (Figs. 4AB; classification after Leake et al., 1997). In amphibole-liquid assemblages, amphibole composition is also dominated by tschermakite that represents 39% of the data, with magnesiohastingsite being slightly more abundant than magnesiohornblende (26 and 17% of the data, respectively); kearsutite is also relatively abundant reaching ca. 13% of the data, whereas pargasite and ferropargasite account for

6.1. Plagioclase/amphibole Al-Si partitioning barometer There is compelling experimental evidence that Al-tschermakite substitution in amphibole shows positive correlation with pressure in a large diversity of plagioclase-bearing assemblages (e.g., Poli, 1993, Schmidt, 1993, Anderson and Smith, 1995, and references therein): the nine-phase critical assemblage for granitiods: amphibole + biotite + plagioclase + K-feldspar + quartz + melt + Fe-Ti oxide + sphene + fluid; amphibole + plagioclase + quartz + epidote + garnet; amphibole + plagioclase + epidote + calcite + quartz; amphibole + anorthite + clinopyroxene + quartz; amphibole + anorthite + orthopyroxene + spinel; amphibole + anorthite + clinopyroxene + melt; amphibole + anorthite + corundum + chlorite. For amphibole coexisting with plagioclase from the experimental database synthesized at T > 650 ºC with > 0.02 apfu (23O) Ti and > 0.05 apfu AlVI, NaA + K versus AlIV relationships (Fig. 6A) show a

relationships (Fig. 6B) suggest that, on average, ca. 0.2 apfu AlVI + Fe3+ are present in amphibole as Al+Fe-glaucophane component (see also Fig. 6C). Because the importance Al-tschermakite (+Al-

Numerous barometers based on reactions buffering Al-tschermakite component in amphiboleplagioclase-bearing assemblages have been proposed. Thus, simple empirical expressions that relate the total Al content in amphibole with pressure have been calibrated for granitoids presenting during

7.1. Accuracy and precision of thermobarometric expressions calibrated using MM-estimators
ED
The plagioclase/amphibole Al-Si partitioning barometer and the Mg-in-liquid and the
PT
amphibole/liquid Mg partitioning thermometers calibrated in this work perform reasonably well (Figs. 9 and 10) and yield R2 values > 0.937 with fitted slopes for relationships between calculated and
CE
measured pressures and temperatures indistinguishable from the one-to-one line within uncertainties (Tables 5, 7 and 9). Remarkably, the barometric expression reproduces well pressure conditions of
AC
high-Al amphibole-bearing assemblages from near-solidus experiments from Schmidt (1992, 1993), not included in the calibration data set (Fig. 10A). The magnitudes of precision for the calibrated expressions (±1.5 to ±2.3 kbar and ±35 to ±45 ºC) are close to the values reported in widely used thermobarometric expressions that typically range from ±1 to ±4 kbar and from ±30 to ±50 ºC (e.g., McCarthy and Patiño-Douce, 1998; Krogh-Ravna and Paquin, 2003; Putirka, 2008; Nimis and Grütter, 2010). The uncertainties for the plagioclase-amphibole barometer are similar to, or better than, these for the amphibole-plagioclase-quartz barometer from Bhadra and Bhattacharya (2007) that are close to ±2.3 kbar (Fig. 12A). For the liquid-only and the amphibole-liquid thermometers, the uncertainties are similar to these for the edenite-quartz-tremolite-albite and the edenite-albite-richterite-anorthite
19
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT thermometers (ca. ±40 ºC; Holland and Blundy, 1994). These thermometers also reproduce well experimental temperatures for most amphibole-glass pairs from an experimental database compiled from the literature by Erdmann et al.

PT
(Fig. 12B) —runs 47 and 50-26 (Table 2 from the same authors) present larger discrepancies.
SC RI
7.2. Comparison to amphibole-only thermobarometers
A test of the amphibole-only expressions from Ridolfi et al. (2010) and Ridolfi and Renzulli (2012) carried out recently by Erdmann et al. (2014) led to the conclusion that the thermometers work
NU
reasonably well, but the barometers are inaccurate and give untenable estimates.
MA
Accordingly, when testing these expressions with the experimental database used in this work, the amphibole-only thermometric expressions perform well with precisions ranging form ±32 to ±36 ºC (Figs. 13A-B) that are similar to these for the liquid-only and the amphibole-liquid thermometers
ED
derived in this work. By contrast, the amphibole-only barometric expressions present significant
PT
systematic errors, but expressions 1d and 1e that yield precisions close, respectively, to ±2.4 and ±3.5 kbar (Figs. 13C-H). Therefore, expression 1d can still be used for pressure estimations, but it is
CE
important to note that it was calibrated in the pressure range 4 to 15 kbar.

7.3. Applications to high-grade metamorphic and igneous rocks In this section, the plagioclase/amphibole Al-Si partitioning barometer and the Mg-in-liquid and the amphibole/liquid Mg partitioning thermometers are applied to natural assemblages from metamorphic and igneous rocks to evaluate the consistency of the P-T estimates with other thermobarometric expressions (Tables 10 and 11). Two Excel spreadsheets downloadable from the electronic supplementary material (Appendixes C and D) have been programmed to make it easy to compute the P-T estimates. The barometer can be applied to mineral assemblages containing amphibole with > 0.02 apfu Ti and > 0.05 apfu AlVI (13-CNK method) equilibrated at T > 650 ºC, whereas the use of the thermometers is limited to assemblages crystallized at T > 800 ºC with amphibole presenting > 0.75

For the garnet amphibolite R30A1 from Aravalli-Delhi Mobile Belt, Bhowmik et al.

As a second goal, the liquid-only and the amphibole/liquid Mg partitioning thermometers can be used in plutonic rocks for constraining model compositions of the liquids in equilibrium with amphibole, as proposed in Putirka et al. (1996) and Putirka (2008) for other mineral phases. So, a set of model liquid compositions that may include whole-rock analyses as well as corrected whole-rock compositions for mineral accumulation and fractionation could be used for testing mineral-liquid equilibrium compositions (e.g., Putirka, 2008). For the first purpose three samples have been selected: 1) four amphibole analyses and two glass

For the second goal, one sample of quartz monzonite from the Katerina Ring Complex in southern Sinai has been used (sample KA-29; Moreno et al., 2014). It contains scarce green grains of

magnesiohornblende (modal abundance: ca. 5vol.%) with rare grain cores of brown, high-Ti
AC
hastingsitic amphibole (Moreno et al., 2014). Given the low-modal abundance of the brown amphibole, the bulk composition of the quartz monzonite could represent that of a liquid saturated in the high-Ti hastingsitic amphibole if this latter is primocrystic. The liquid-only and the amphiboleliquid thermometers yield temperature estimates that lie within the range of variation of those obtained with the amphibole-plagioclase and the amphibole-only thermometers, with absolute deviations close to the uncertainties of the expression derived in this work (Table 11; Figs. 15B-C). Therefore, this result is consistent with the brown, high-Ti hastingsitic amphibole representing primocrysts in close equilibrium with liquids with compositions similar to that of the quartz monzonite.
