Citizenship: China

Graduated university: Peking University Department of Geology and geography

Occupation: ectonician

Research Interests:

Xu Zhiqin is an important development in the field of structural geology China micro and macro structures of the combination of the.

Early research in rift. In 80s, the new construction concept as a guide, tectonic deformation on the orogeny and orogenic mechanism dedicated to the Qinghai Tibet Plateau and the surrounding orogenic belt. Determination of China more than 50 large-scale ductile shear zone, which deformation tectonic system with several Western orogenic orogeny, divided stage and continental mountain chains "tectonic style", "a new understanding of the Tethys Himalaya orogenic complex and China Western Variscan since the great translation effect. For the first time found in the Dabie Mountains China UHP mineral coesite, leader of the "Chinese CCSD pilot research group has made great efforts to promote the implementation of China's accession to the project.

In 1970s, she engaged in research Chinese east of Tanlu fault, the rifting event of the Tanlu fault since the cretaceous.

Since 80s, she to construct new concept as a guide, the macro structure and micro structure of the combination of tectonic deformation on the orogenesis and orogenic mechanism, is committed to the Qinghai Tibet Plateau and adjacent orogenic belts, successively in the Qinling Mountains Dabie orogenic belt, Songpan - Ganzi, Kunlun - Qilian orogenic belt, Altun Mountains and Himalaya Range 6 China international cooperation projects in China as a responsible person. Presided over the 4 Dabie Sulu UHP belt project. As the chief scientist of the National Science Engineering, Chinese Continental Scientific Drilling Engineering, natural science fund 973 projects and major projects.

The research group led by Xu Zhiqin, the structural geology in geometry, kinematics, dynamics and quantitative analysis, applied to the Qinghai Tibet Plateau and Chinese orogenic belt study, orogenic process remodeling, delineated China orogenic belt nearly 50 large-scale ductile shear zone, established the basic tectonic framework of western main orogenic deformation with the division of orogenic stage and continental mountain chains "tectonic style", put forward a new understanding of the role of translation since the early Paleozoic Great Western Chinese. Xu Zhiqin led the research team to improve the structure of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, the Tibetan Plateau lithosphere translithospheric shear faults, low velocity mantle plume, lithospheric plate mantle delamination and intracontinental subduction of the Tibetan Plateau dynamics model. She found China western Qilian Mountains ultrahigh pressure metamorphic belt in the southern of (YangJingsui, Xu Zhiqin et al, 1999 ~ 2002) has contributed to the proof of Aerjin mountain is west part of Qilian Mountains and along the main fault sinistral 400 kilometers, confirmed the original Himalaya Range formed in the Pan African and early Paleozoic, Zangnan detachment body size and the increase of East-West detachment structure are put forward in the Cretaceous began uplifted strongly new ideas rise of the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau and Northern orogenic belt. She and the French geologist Ta pponnier further proposed since the Cenozoic Qinghai Tibet Plateau from south to north east direction oblique dextral hyperplasia uplift mechanism, the research results in the Science .

Firstly, structural geology geometry, kinematics and dynamics and quantitative analysis used in the Qinghai Tibet Plateau and China orogenic belt research, established in China more than 50 2 large ductile shear zone, laid the foundation for the study of tectonic deformation with some Western orogenic system, was first found in 1987 in the Dabie UHP minerals of coesite in. The Qinghai Tibet Plateau and orogenic collision dynamics mechanism and put forward a series of important ideas and theories. In the early implementation of the "Chinese continental dynamics" plan. Chinese Continental Scientific Drilling Project has been completed in 2005, has an important influence at home and abroad, as chief scientist has made an important contribution to the China Continental Scientific Drilling Project.At the same time is the national disaster prevention and mitigation committee experts.
