On 14th October, 2020, 3 doctoral students from Huanggang Normal University, school of Geography and Tourism, one of the research partners of Huanggang Dabieshan UGGp, carried out sample collection to scientific research on Paleoclimate and Paleosolin Huanggang Dabieshan area. It is understood that the collected samplesareused for study on vertical distribution characteristics of brGDGTs having in top soil along Qingling-Dabieshan paleoclimate zone. The research results can be used for reference on vertical distribution characteristics of brGDGTs having in top soil andproviding fundamental basis for reconstruction ofpaleotemperature and paleo-altitude based on brGDGTs thermometric scale.
The research work was supported by Doctor Start up Fund from Huanggang Normal University and 100 samples will be collected within a week. After the sample collection is completed, it will be tested and analyzed in laboratory.
