Resume
Guoliang Zhang, research professor, Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. In 2015, he was funded by National Natural Science Foundation-Outstanding Youth Foundation; In 2018, he was awarded for Ministry of Science and Technology Innovative Talents Promotion; and in 2019, he was selected as National special support program for high-level personnel recruitment (Ten-thousand Talents Program). He is editorial board member for journals of Marine Geology and quaternary Geology, Frontier of Marine Geology, and guest editor of Marine Geophysical Research. He has been engaged in research of igneous petrology and mantle geochemistry, including studies of mid-ocean ridge magmatism, genesis of mantle compositional heterogeneity, formation of global seamount volcanism, magmatism of the South China Sea spreading basin, and deep mantle cycle in the magma processes. He has published more than 40 research papers, including 17 first/corresponding author papers published in Nature Geoscience, Earth and Planetary Science Letters、Chemical Geology、G-cubed.
