<Introduction to Geoscience>

Until now, two research projects have been conducted, as follows:

   1. “Sedimentary study on the Carboniferous pyroclastic rocks of the Khan-Bogd region, southern Mongolia and its constraint on late-stage evolution of the Paleo- Asian Ocean”, funded by National Natural Science Foundation of China (42102260), 2022-2024;

2023：
