Research Interests：
My research interests cover many aspects of “softrock” geology, particularly on carbonate sedimentology, cyclostratigraphy and sequence stratigraphy of carbonates, diagenesis (particularly dolomitization) and their application in reservoir characterization; Basin analysis; Sedimentary geochemistry (isotope and REE geochemistry) and palaeoceanography; deep-time geosystems.
    In the aspects of sequence/cycle stratigraphy studies, my studies aim to delineate the tempo-spatial variations of depositional facies in the chronostratigaphic framework, and carbonate platform evolution in the basin. In the aspect of diagenesis, my study integrates the petrography with geochemistry to investigate diagenesis of carbonate rocks, especially dolomitization, and its implication on reservoir development and mineralization in the sedimentary basins. My recent researches on this aspect focus on the dolomitization and reservoir characterization of the Lower Paleozoic carbonates, Tarim Basin, NW China.
    My other study interests are involved with sedimentary geochemistry, paleoceanography, boundary events and earth system processes, in which my studies integrate detailed sedimento-stratigraphic investigations with geochemical approaches (i.e., isotope geochemistry and REE geochemistry) to characterize the abrupt geological events during several critical transitions of the Earth hishtory and their mechanisms. My current researches in this aspect mainly focus on the Devonian Frasnian-Famennian, Precambrian-Cambrian, and Ordovician-Silurian transitions, involving with their tectonic, paleoceanographic and climatic variations on the global basis. These studies aims to document the interactions of land-ocean-atmosphere-biosphere and the mechanism of marine extreme environments and ecological crisis (or collapse).
