9315189 Johnson This award supports travel expenses of Markes Johnson, Department of Geology, Williams College to visit China and participate in joint research with Rong Jiayu, Nanjing Institute of Geology and Paleontology, on Silurian rocky shorelines. The researchers will collaborate on a joint field study of a rocky shoreline of Silurian age near Guiyang, China. The fundamental value of an ancient rocky shoreline is its unambiguous position marking the boundary between ancient land and sea. Many practical applications in paleogeography may be derived from this starting point, including the evolution of rocky-shore communities through geologic time. This project will be the first time an ancient rocky shoreline will be studied in China.

9315189 Johnson 该奖项资助威廉姆斯学院地质系Markes Johnson访问中国并与南京地质古生物研究所荣家宇共同开展志留系岩石海岸线研究的旅费。 研究人员将合作对中国贵阳附近志留纪时代的岩石海岸线进行联合实地研究。 古代岩石海岸线的基本价值在于其明确的位置，标志着古代陆地和海洋之间的边界。 古地理学中的许多实际应用可能源于这个起点，包括岩石海岸群落在地质时期的演变。 该项目将是中国首次对古代岩石海岸线进行研究。
