Co-evolution of solid Earth, surface environment and life

自1990年以来，本课题组通过在南中国海钻探，完成了生命和地球随时间变化的研究，具体表现为：1）水平轴4.6Ga研究; 2）生命和地球演化临界时间的聚焦期研究，特别是第二次雪球地球和随后的寒武纪大爆发。中国前者包括地幔温度、地表温度、海水成分、大气成分、演化中的生命、地磁强度、宇宙射线通量、大陆生长、大陆的汞齐-分散、沉积岩的数量和成分等。2011年，英文版400页，450个数字。

Since 1990, the research of life and the Earth through time has been achieved by our group, specifically by 1) horizontal axis 4.6Ga research and the 2) focused period research of the critical time of evolving life and planet, particularly the second snowball earth and subsequent Cambrian explosion by this Program through drilling in S. China. The former includes mantle temperature, surface temperature, seawater composition, atmosphere composition, evolving life, geomagnetic intensity, cosmic ray flux, continental growth, amalgamation-dispersion of continents, amounts and composition of sedimentary rocks, and others all through time.The final synthesis of the works above is now prepared to be appeared in the journal, ca. 400 pages with 450 figures in English in 2011.
