                  <text>A classic example of Barrovian-type metamorphism in Dutchess County, NY associated with the Taconic orogeny. A Barrovian metamorphic sequence displays gradual pressure and temperature increase along the metamorphic gradient, and occurs during regional metamorphism. These zones of pressure and temperature increase are recognizable by the characteristic minerals that accompany them. Dutchess County, NY contains an unusually complete sequence.&#13;
&#13;
This collection contains metamorphic rocks from chlorite grade to sillimanite grade in a tight spatial window which records the regional metamorphic gradient increasing  from WNW to ESE. This collection also contains some rocks that mirror the protoliths of the schists and quartzites of the sequence (shales and graywacke). </text>

Good general introduction to the geology of the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional Resources:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whitney, D.L., Mechum, T.A., Keuhner, S.M., and Dilek, Y.R., 1996, Progressive metamorphism of pelitic rocks from protolith to granulite facies, Dutchess County, New York, USA: constraints on the timing of fluid infiltration during regional metamorphism, Journal of Metamorphic Geology, v. 14, p. 163-181. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.1046/j.1525-1314.1996.05836.x&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;A fairly general look at the progressive metamorphism in Dutchess County by one of the foremost workers in the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Knopf, E.B., 1927, Some recent work in the Taconic area: American Journal of Science, v. 41, p. 42-458. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.2475/ajs.s5-14.84.429&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;One of the first articles to describle the Dutchess County rocks as a "classic" Barrovian sequence.Â &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ghent, E.D., Stout, M.Z., 1981, Geobarometry and geothermometry of plagioclase-biotite-garnet-muscovite assemblages, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, v. 76, p. 92-97. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.1007/BF00373688&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Work constraining the pressure and temperature paths of metamorphism in the sequence through equilibrium assemblages. This work was found to be in agreement with other equilibrium assemblage PT paths.&lt;/li&gt;

Garnet is widely distributed through the sequence, which makes it a useful marker for tracking these changes.&lt;/li&gt;

Good general introduction to the geology of the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional Resources:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whitney, D.L., Mechum, T.A., Keuhner, S.M., and Dilek, Y.R., 1996, Progressive metamorphism of pelitic rocks from protolith to granulite facies, Dutchess County, New York, USA: constraints on the timing of fluid infiltration during regional metamorphism, Journal of Metamorphic Geology, v. 14, p. 163-181. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.1046/j.1525-1314.1996.05836.x&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;A fairly general look at the progressive metamorphism in Dutchess County by one of the foremost workers in the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Knopf, E.B., 1927, Some recent work in the Taconic area: American Journal of Science, v. 41, p. 42-458. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.2475/ajs.s5-14.84.429&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;One of the first articles to describle the Dutchess County rocks as a "classic" Barrovian sequence.Â &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ghent, E.D., Stout, M.Z., 1981, Geobarometry and geothermometry of plagioclase-biotite-garnet-muscovite assemblages, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, v. 76, p. 92-97. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.1007/BF00373688&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Work constraining the pressure and temperature paths of metamorphism in the sequence through equilibrium assemblages. This work was found to be in agreement with other equilibrium assemblage PT paths.&lt;/li&gt;

Garnet is widely distributed through the sequence, which makes it a useful marker for tracking these changes.&lt;/li&gt;

                  <text>A classic example of Barrovian-type metamorphism in Dutchess County, NY associated with the Taconic orogeny. A Barrovian metamorphic sequence displays gradual pressure and temperature increase along the metamorphic gradient, and occurs during regional metamorphism. These zones of pressure and temperature increase are recognizable by the characteristic minerals that accompany them. Dutchess County, NY contains an unusually complete sequence.&#13;
&#13;
This collection contains metamorphic rocks from chlorite grade to sillimanite grade in a tight spatial window which records the regional metamorphic gradient increasing  from WNW to ESE. This collection also contains some rocks that mirror the protoliths of the schists and quartzites of the sequence (shales and graywacke). </text>

                  <text>A classic example of Barrovian-type metamorphism in Dutchess County, NY associated with the Taconic orogeny. A Barrovian metamorphic sequence displays gradual pressure and temperature increase along the metamorphic gradient, and occurs during regional metamorphism. These zones of pressure and temperature increase are recognizable by the characteristic minerals that accompany them. Dutchess County, NY contains an unusually complete sequence.&#13;
&#13;
This collection contains metamorphic rocks from chlorite grade to sillimanite grade in a tight spatial window which records the regional metamorphic gradient increasing  from WNW to ESE. This collection also contains some rocks that mirror the protoliths of the schists and quartzites of the sequence (shales and graywacke). </text>

Good general introduction to the geology of the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional Resources:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whitney, D.L., Mechum, T.A., Keuhner, S.M., and Dilek, Y.R., 1996, Progressive metamorphism of pelitic rocks from protolith to granulite facies, Dutchess County, New York, USA: constraints on the timing of fluid infiltration during regional metamorphism, Journal of Metamorphic Geology, v. 14, p. 163-181. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.1046/j.1525-1314.1996.05836.x&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;A fairly general look at the progressive metamorphism in Dutchess County by one of the foremost workers in the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Knopf, E.B., 1927, Some recent work in the Taconic area: American Journal of Science, v. 41, p. 42-458. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.2475/ajs.s5-14.84.429&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;One of the first articles to describle the Dutchess County rocks as a "classic" Barrovian sequence.Â &lt;/li&gt;

This work was found to be in agreement with other equilibrium assemblage PT paths.&lt;/li&gt;

Garnet is widely distributed through the sequence, which makes it a useful marker for tracking these changes.&lt;/li&gt;

                  <text>&lt;strong&gt;Start Here:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Vollmer, F. W., and Walker, J., 2009, The classic Barrovian metamorphic sequence of Dutchess County and its structural and stratigraphic context in the Taconic Orogeny. In Guidebookâ€”New York State Geological Association Meeting, v. 81, p. 11-1.Â &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www2.newpaltz.edu/~vollmerf/papers/Vollmer_and_Walker_2009_NYSGA.pdf"&gt;http://www2.newpaltz.edu/~vollmerf/papers/Vollmer_and_Walker_2009_NYSGA.pdf&lt;/a&gt;Â (accessed March 15th, 2015)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;A useful field trip guide across the Barrovian metamorphic sequence of Dutchess county. Good general introduction to the geology of the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional Resources:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whitney, D.L., Mechum, T.A., Keuhner, S.M., and Dilek, Y.R., 1996, Progressive metamorphism of pelitic rocks from protolith to granulite facies, Dutchess County, New York, USA: constraints on the timing of fluid infiltration during regional metamorphism, Journal of Metamorphic Geology, v. 14, p. 163-181. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.1046/j.1525-1314.1996.05836.x&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;A fairly general look at the progressive metamorphism in Dutchess County by one of the foremost workers in the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Knopf, E.B., 1927, Some recent work in the Taconic area: American Journal of Science, v. 41, p. 42-458. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.2475/ajs.s5-14.84.429&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;One of the first articles to describle the Dutchess County rocks as a "classic" Barrovian sequence.Â &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ghent, E.D., Stout, M.Z., 1981, Geobarometry and geothermometry of plagioclase-biotite-garnet-muscovite assemblages, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, v. 76, p. 92-97. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.1007/BF00373688&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Work constraining the pressure and temperature paths of metamorphism in the sequence through equilibrium assemblages. This work was found to be in agreement with other equilibrium assemblage PT paths.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whitney, D.L., Mechum, T.A., Dilek, Y.R., and Keuhner, S.M., 1996, Modification of garnet during regional metamorphism in garnet through sillimanite-zone rocks, Dutchess County, New York, American Mineralogist, v. 81, p. 696-705. &lt;a href="http://www.minsocam.org/MSA/AmMin/TOC/Articles_Free/1996/Whitney_p696-705_96.pdf"&gt; http://www.minsocam.org/MSA/AmMin/TOC/Articles_Free/1996/Whitney_p696-705_96.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Work by Whitney on changes in PTX conditions leading to modification of garnet in the metamorphic sequence. Garnet is widely distributed through the sequence, which makes it a useful marker for tracking these changes.&lt;/li&gt;

                  <text>A classic example of Barrovian-type metamorphism in Dutchess County, NY associated with the Taconic orogeny. A Barrovian metamorphic sequence displays gradual pressure and temperature increase along the metamorphic gradient, and occurs during regional metamorphism. These zones of pressure and temperature increase are recognizable by the characteristic minerals that accompany them. Dutchess County, NY contains an unusually complete sequence.&#13;
&#13;
This collection contains metamorphic rocks from chlorite grade to sillimanite grade in a tight spatial window which records the regional metamorphic gradient increasing  from WNW to ESE. This collection also contains some rocks that mirror the protoliths of the schists and quartzites of the sequence (shales and graywacke). </text>

                  <text>A classic example of Barrovian-type metamorphism in Dutchess County, NY associated with the Taconic orogeny. A Barrovian metamorphic sequence displays gradual pressure and temperature increase along the metamorphic gradient, and occurs during regional metamorphism. These zones of pressure and temperature increase are recognizable by the characteristic minerals that accompany them. Dutchess County, NY contains an unusually complete sequence.&#13;
&#13;
This collection contains metamorphic rocks from chlorite grade to sillimanite grade in a tight spatial window which records the regional metamorphic gradient increasing  from WNW to ESE. This collection also contains some rocks that mirror the protoliths of the schists and quartzites of the sequence (shales and graywacke). </text>

                  <text>A classic example of Barrovian-type metamorphism in Dutchess County, NY associated with the Taconic orogeny. A Barrovian metamorphic sequence displays gradual pressure and temperature increase along the metamorphic gradient, and occurs during regional metamorphism. These zones of pressure and temperature increase are recognizable by the characteristic minerals that accompany them. Dutchess County, NY contains an unusually complete sequence.&#13;
&#13;
This collection contains metamorphic rocks from chlorite grade to sillimanite grade in a tight spatial window which records the regional metamorphic gradient increasing  from WNW to ESE. This collection also contains some rocks that mirror the protoliths of the schists and quartzites of the sequence (shales and graywacke). </text>

Good general introduction to the geology of the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional Resources:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whitney, D.L., Mechum, T.A., Keuhner, S.M., and Dilek, Y.R., 1996, Progressive metamorphism of pelitic rocks from protolith to granulite facies, Dutchess County, New York, USA: constraints on the timing of fluid infiltration during regional metamorphism, Journal of Metamorphic Geology, v. 14, p. 163-181. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.1046/j.1525-1314.1996.05836.x&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;A fairly general look at the progressive metamorphism in Dutchess County by one of the foremost workers in the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Knopf, E.B., 1927, Some recent work in the Taconic area: American Journal of Science, v. 41, p. 42-458. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.2475/ajs.s5-14.84.429&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;One of the first articles to describle the Dutchess County rocks as a "classic" Barrovian sequence.Â &lt;/li&gt;

This work was found to be in agreement with other equilibrium assemblage PT paths.&lt;/li&gt;

Garnet is widely distributed through the sequence, which makes it a useful marker for tracking these changes.&lt;/li&gt;

Good general introduction to the geology of the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional Resources:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whitney, D.L., Mechum, T.A., Keuhner, S.M., and Dilek, Y.R., 1996, Progressive metamorphism of pelitic rocks from protolith to granulite facies, Dutchess County, New York, USA: constraints on the timing of fluid infiltration during regional metamorphism, Journal of Metamorphic Geology, v. 14, p. 163-181. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.1046/j.1525-1314.1996.05836.x&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;A fairly general look at the progressive metamorphism in Dutchess County by one of the foremost workers in the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Knopf, E.B., 1927, Some recent work in the Taconic area: American Journal of Science, v. 41, p. 42-458. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.2475/ajs.s5-14.84.429&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;One of the first articles to describle the Dutchess County rocks as a "classic" Barrovian sequence.Â &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ghent, E.D., Stout, M.Z., 1981, Geobarometry and geothermometry of plagioclase-biotite-garnet-muscovite assemblages, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, v. 76, p. 92-97. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.1007/BF00373688&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Work constraining the pressure and temperature paths of metamorphism in the sequence through equilibrium assemblages. This work was found to be in agreement with other equilibrium assemblage PT paths.&lt;/li&gt;

Garnet is widely distributed through the sequence, which makes it a useful marker for tracking these changes.&lt;/li&gt;

                  <text>A classic example of Barrovian-type metamorphism in Dutchess County, NY associated with the Taconic orogeny. A Barrovian metamorphic sequence displays gradual pressure and temperature increase along the metamorphic gradient, and occurs during regional metamorphism. These zones of pressure and temperature increase are recognizable by the characteristic minerals that accompany them. Dutchess County, NY contains an unusually complete sequence.&#13;
&#13;
This collection contains metamorphic rocks from chlorite grade to sillimanite grade in a tight spatial window which records the regional metamorphic gradient increasing  from WNW to ESE. This collection also contains some rocks that mirror the protoliths of the schists and quartzites of the sequence (shales and graywacke). </text>

                  <text>A classic example of Barrovian-type metamorphism in Dutchess County, NY associated with the Taconic orogeny. A Barrovian metamorphic sequence displays gradual pressure and temperature increase along the metamorphic gradient, and occurs during regional metamorphism. These zones of pressure and temperature increase are recognizable by the characteristic minerals that accompany them. Dutchess County, NY contains an unusually complete sequence.&#13;
&#13;
This collection contains metamorphic rocks from chlorite grade to sillimanite grade in a tight spatial window which records the regional metamorphic gradient increasing  from WNW to ESE. This collection also contains some rocks that mirror the protoliths of the schists and quartzites of the sequence (shales and graywacke). </text>

                  <text>A classic example of Barrovian-type metamorphism in Dutchess County, NY associated with the Taconic orogeny. A Barrovian metamorphic sequence displays gradual pressure and temperature increase along the metamorphic gradient, and occurs during regional metamorphism. These zones of pressure and temperature increase are recognizable by the characteristic minerals that accompany them. Dutchess County, NY contains an unusually complete sequence.&#13;
&#13;
This collection contains metamorphic rocks from chlorite grade to sillimanite grade in a tight spatial window which records the regional metamorphic gradient increasing  from WNW to ESE. This collection also contains some rocks that mirror the protoliths of the schists and quartzites of the sequence (shales and graywacke). </text>

Good general introduction to the geology of the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional Resources:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whitney, D.L., Mechum, T.A., Keuhner, S.M., and Dilek, Y.R., 1996, Progressive metamorphism of pelitic rocks from protolith to granulite facies, Dutchess County, New York, USA: constraints on the timing of fluid infiltration during regional metamorphism, Journal of Metamorphic Geology, v. 14, p. 163-181. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.1046/j.1525-1314.1996.05836.x&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;A fairly general look at the progressive metamorphism in Dutchess County by one of the foremost workers in the area.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Knopf, E.B., 1927, Some recent work in the Taconic area: American Journal of Science, v. 41, p. 42-458. &lt;a href="http://dx.doi.org/"&gt;http://dx.doi.org/&lt;span&gt;10.2475/ajs.s5-14.84.429&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;One of the first articles to describle the Dutchess County rocks as a "classic" Barrovian sequence.Â &lt;/li&gt;

This work was found to be in agreement with other equilibrium assemblage PT paths.&lt;/li&gt;

Garnet is widely distributed through the sequence, which makes it a useful marker for tracking these changes.&lt;/li&gt;

Garnet is widely distributed through the sequence, which makes it a useful marker for tracking these changes.&lt;/li&gt;
