The Non-uniform Continuity Problem On The Numerical Simulation of a Dust-storm Case Over East Asia
Abstract The numerical simulation on the long distance process of a dust-storm event based on conputer science need us to couple a long distance transporting model with a meteorological model. Here we show a numerical simulation study for a...

Late Cretaceous chronostratigraphy (Turonian–Maastrichtian): SK1 core Songliao Basin, China
Abstract Non-marine ostracodes, charophytes and palynomorphs are abundant in most Cretaceous lacustrine basins of East Asia. However, their ranges are not directly integrated with marine biota that defines the Cretaceous stages. Non-biotic events...
