Sedimentology and Structural Geology
Research Interests
· Sedimentary geodynamics
 

Sequences and cycles of depositional records, paleotectonic-paleogeographic-paleoclimatic origins of basin-fills, basin-range interaction and sedimentary geodynamics. Focus on the Mesozoic-Cenozoic sedimentary basins in China and adjacent area.


· Sedimentary diagenesis and its spatio-temporal structures
 
Focus on spatio-temporal distribution research of clastic/carbonate diagenesis based on sedimentary sequence (rock-mineral-chemical system configuration), burial evolusion, structural strain pattern and fluid flow frameworks

· Tectonic evolution of the HP-UHP orogenic belt
 

Tectonic evolution of the HP-UHP orogenic belt of central China; Extensional structures related post-collision and regional tectonics and it geodynamics, eastern China; Orogenic belt and related basins; Intra-continental orogenic belt and its geodynamics 


· Paleoproterozoic tectonic evolution of collision belt of North China
 

Paleoproterozoic tectonic evolution of collision belt of North China 


· Tectonic evolution of Tethys
 

Tectonic evolution of Tethys


· Evolution and distribution of reservoirs; formation and pool-forming rules of oil-gas-bearing basins
 
Focus on the Cenozoic Bohaiwan basin, Paleozoic-Mesozoic-Cenozoic Tarim basin, Paleozoic Sichuan basin, Paleozoic-Mesozoic Jungar basin
