Title: Associate Professor

Email: yfchen@gig.ac.cn

 

2010- Associate Professor, Guangzhou Institute of Geochemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS)

2006 – 2009 Postdoctoral Research Fellow in marine geology, Geological Survey of Norway  

2001 – 2006 Ph.D. in earth and planetary science, University of Tokyo

1997 – 2001 Research Assistant, Nanjing Institute of Geography and Limnology, CAS

1994 – 1997 M.Sc. in geochemistry, Institute of Geochemistry, CAS


Research Interests:

The isotope geochemistry of light elements (H, C, O) and 87Sr/86Sr ratios, U-Th/Pb dating, as applied to the biogeochemistry of marine sediments; the fluid flow in marine subsurface; global ocean seawater chemical and isotopic evolution; carbon cycle within cold seepage, and paleoclimate.
