Earth Resource Science Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that seeks to understand the concentration of elements and environmental change in the biosphere from a planetary science perspective.
AboutAbout the lab
Understanding changes in elements and the environment through planetary science.
The Earth Resource Science Lab aims to understand, in a unified way and from a planetary science perspective, the concentration and dispersion of elements in the Earth system and changes in the environment of the biosphere.
It is one of the fields established in the Earth Evolution Sciences Major of the College of Earth Sciences at the University of Tsukuba.
The faculty's research areas are the analysis of paleoenvironmental change using sedimentary rocks and sediments, the history of life on Earth, and tectonics.
Graduation research topics include mineralization of ore deposits in Mexico, oxygen isotope ratios of quartz from the Hishikari gold deposit, volcanic rocks around Lake Atacama in Chile, the K-Pg boundary layer, and stalagmites from a cave in Italy.
Key terms
- Sedimentary rock
- Rock formed when sand, mud, and other materials pile up and harden. It remains as strata (sedimentary rock)
- Paleoenvironmental change
- How the Earth's environment in the past has changed over time (paleoenvironmental change)
- Tectonics
- The field that deals with large-scale movements occurring at the Earth's surface and in its interior, and the geological changes that accompany them (tectonics)
ResearchResearch themes
The lab aims to understand, in a unified way and from a planetary science perspective, the processes by which elements concentrate and disperse in the Earth system, and the processes by which the environment of the biosphere has changed. The faculty's research areas are the analysis of paleoenvironmental change using sedimentary rocks and sediments, the history of life on Earth, and tectonics.
