Petrology

estimating magma temperature from the zirconium content at which a melt of given composition becomes saturated in zircon.

In petrology, zircon saturation thermometry refers to estimating magma temperature from the zirconium content at which a melt of given composition becomes saturated in zircon. This meaning comes from Watson (1983) in Earth and Planetary Science Letters.[1]
