I am a geologist who investigates the geological and tectonic evolution of Antarctica using the petrological, geochemical and geophysical data, to better understand the origin and evolution of old continental craton and the key events recorded in the rocks. The paleoclimate, paleoenvironment and paleoceanography took place in South Ocean are also my interests.
