My research utilizes the sedimentary rock archive to better understand the relationship between Earth surface processes and deep Earth evolution, by integrating sedimentological, tectonostratigraphic, geochemical, mineralogical and geophysical data from field-based studies. Current research projects include (1) Constraining the Neoproterozoic to early Paleozoic stratigraphic and tectonic architecture of western Yangtze; (2) A tectonostratigraphic and provenance investigation of Paleozoic sedimentary rocks in Western Australia; and (3) Orogenic root delamination and its impact on the subsequent magmatism and sedimentation. With previous experience in the petroleum industries, I am also specialised in forward/inversion geophysical modelling, and well-seismiccalibrationbased on shallow magnetotelluric, seismic and well data, and its applications to deep Earth evolution.
