Convective flow in the deep mantle controls Earth's dynamic evolution, influences plate
tectonics, and has shaped Earth's current surface features. Present and past convection …

Using Gondwana as an example, we show how the geological record can be interrogated to
detect significant changes in mantle convection patterns at critical junctures in Earth's …

Recent seismological studies challenge the traditional view that the interface between the
core and mantle is a straightforward discontinuity. As seismology is pushed to its …

摘要[意义] 生物圈是地球区别于其他星球的一大关键, 微生物因时空分布广, 代谢功能多样,
繁殖快, 丰度高而对地球宜居性产生重要影响, 探索微生物与沉积岩的协同演化关系对了解宜居 …

Precambrian banded iron formations (BIFs) are iron-and silica-rich (bio) chemical sediments
that are widely believed to have been precipitated by microbial oxidation of dissolved Fe (II) …
