Research Abstract

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.
