Prof. JIANG Hongchen, Dr.YANG Jian and Dr. HAN Mingxian from the State Key Laboratory of Biogeology and Environmental Geology found that positive priming effects induced by allochthonous and autochthonous organic matter input occur in the lake sediments with different salinity. The results are published in Geophysical Research Letters. The abstract of the article is as follows.Global warming ch...

Mammals including humans only replace teeth once in a lifetime. After baby teeth are shed, permanent teeth will accompany us for the rest of our life. In reptiles, however, teeth are constantly replaced in a wave-like pattern during their lifetime. So how did dinosaurs replace their teeth?Triceratops from the Late Cretaceous of North America is famous for bearing horns and frills, but it is lik...

In recent years, many new marine reptiles related to ichthyosaurs, and called early ichthyosauromorphs, have been found in rocks of Early Triassic age and shed light on the origin of ichthyosaurs. These early ichthyosauromorphs have been discovered ...

Recently, the research team led by Prof. CHEN Jiehong in China University ofGeosciences,Wuhan, published new study associated with pre-earthquake anomalous phenomena in the Journal of Earth and Space Sciences. The results suggest that humanity would get a key to resolving the scientific issues of pre-earth quake anomalous phenomena. The team established a novel monitoring system, which is honor...
