At the invitation of Professor Nie Junsheng from the Key Laboratory of Western China’s Environmental Systems (Ministry of Education), College of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Lanzhou University, Research Fellow Cheng Feng from the School of Earth and Space Sciences, Peking University will visit our university and give an academic report on June 11, 2021. Welcome!
Title: Late Cenozoic uplift and permafrost stability in the northern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau: Derived from the limitation of foresped isotope and other climatic proxies and climate models
Time: June 11, 14:30-16:00
Site: Lecture room 502, Qilian Building, Lanzhou University
Lecturer profile
Cheng Feng, a research fellow of the School of Earth and Space Sciences, Peking University, received his PhD degree from Peking University and Rennes University in 2016. From 2016 to 2021, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Rochester and the University of Nevada in the United States. His co-supervisors are Professor Carmala Garzione and Professor Andrew Zuza. At present, he mainly studies the tectonic evolution of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the interaction between tectonics and climate. Taking the Cenozoic basin sediments in the northern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau as the research carrier, he comprehensively uses structural geology, sedimentology, numerical simulation and other means to focus on the key scientific issue of the uplift process and growth mechanism of the northern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The research has been carried out from three aspects: palaeo-elevation evolution, the basin-mountain relationship of tectonic units, and interaction between tectonics and climate. A total of 24 papers have been published, among which 14 SCI papers as the first/corresponding author, including GRL, ESR, JGR: Solid Earth, Tectonics, GSAB and other international geoscience SCI journals. The papers were cited nearly 800 times (Google Scholar). He is the associate editor of the international academic journal Lithosphere. He has been invited to review papers for more than 20 international SCI journals such as Nature Communications, EPSL and Geology.
