In many metmorphic belts, extensive deformation occurs below the metamorphic maximum during heating (that is, while fluid is being generated), whereas rocks do not deform in the same ductile manner on cooling, even while temperature is high. 5, record 1, English, - peak%20metamorphic%20temperature

Lorsque les roches sont enfouies sous terre, les conditions de pressions et de températures augmentent peu à peu. On peut décrire leur mouvement au travers d'un chemin Pression-Température-temps dans un graphique Pression-Température. Le pic du métamorphisme (ou pic de température) correspond au maximum de température atteint par les roches. Généralement, l'assemblage minéralogique de roches métamorphiques correspond à l'assemblage formé lors de ce maximum de température. 7, record 1, French, - temp%C3%A9rature%20maximale%20du%20m%C3%A9tamorphisme
