The pulse of the earth

地球的脉搏。该项目旨在确定大陆地壳的起源和演化及其在地球系统长期发展中的作用。陆壳拥有我们赖以生存的资源，它的演化控制着我们生活的环境。地壳的记录(包括资源)在空间和时间上是间歇性的，但这种周期性的起源尚不清楚。在地壳发展最新进展的基础上，研究金将致力于解决影响矿物系统分布及其前景的断续年龄模式的起源问题。

The pulse of the earth. This project aims to establish the origin and evolution of the continental crust and its role in the long term development of the Earth system. The continental crust hosts the resources on which we depend and its evolution controls the environment in which we live. The crust’s record (including resources) is episodic in space and time, but the origin of this periodicity is unresolved. Building on recent advances on crustal development, the fellowship would work to resolve the origin of the episodic age pattern, which affects the distribution of mineral systems and their prospectivity.
