| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Based on stratigraphy, sedimentary facies, sequence stratigraphy, biostratigraphy and radiometric dating, Cretaceous strata deposited in the Paleo-Japan continental arc-trench system are correlated over the Japanese island arcs on a wide scale. The paleoenvironments, paleogeography and paleoecosystems of the system during the Cretaceous time are reconstructed, taking the tectonic setting in the east Asia into account. Furthermore, several newly investigated topics of representative strata such as the Yezo, Kuji, Soma-Nakamura, Futaba, and Nakaminato groups in Northeast Japan are reported from the viewpoints of terrestrial and marine biota and their characteristics.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
現在の自然豊かな日本列島の基盤である地質体は，古第三紀以降の被覆岩体を除くと，大半は白亜紀の堆積岩や火成岩，変成岩である．鉱物・燃料資源を含む日本の大地の恵みは白亜紀に形成されたといっても過言ではない．本研究は，日本列島が，もともとは古アジア大陸の一部として成立し，その後の地質学的歴史の中で列島になったという，いわば日本列島のルーツを辿る点で社会的にも影響力があり，学術的にも重要な示唆を与える．
