The historical development of Fujian ancient oceanic culture can be summed up as follows:it originated in the Pre-Qin Dynasty,came into being in the dynasties of Han and Jin,prospered in the dynasties of Sui,Tang and Five Dynasties,peaked in the Song Dynasty,developed in the Yuan Dynasty and declined in the dynasties of Ming and Qing.

Advances on studies of geochemistry and paleoceanography of the Co-rich crust;

The Revolution of the Isotopic Composition of Strontium in the Permian Paleo-ocean in South China;

Progress of the study of reactive iron cycling in the paleo-ocean and its applications to the genesis of Cretaceous anoxic-oxic sedimentary transition

In paleoceanography, it plays an important role in determining the temperature of the paleo-sea surface, providing an understanding of the relationship between the primary paleoproduction and the carbon cycle, and testing the hypothesis of submarine methane release.

The Cretaceous greenhouse climate and paleoceanography is one of hot topics in the Earth sciences during the past twenty years.

The organic carbon from autochthonous aquatic matter and land derived plant materials was evaluated respectively and their high resolution accumulation rates were given and discussed for paleoceanography of the southern South China Sea.
