古海洋学

Arctic area as a driver and adjustor of global climate, it reflects sensitively to climatic change. It will be significant to do paleo-oceanographic research in Arctic, which could be very helpful to the prediction of future global climate change.

北极作为全球天气变化的驱动器和调节器，对全球的天气变化非常敏感，通过对北极海域古海洋学的研究，将有助于我们猜测未来的全球天气演变趋势。

In the paper, Professor Zhao's historical course engaged in coral reef study and academic results are reviewed: he established the representative section for geological research on Quaternary coral reef, developed engineering geology research on coral reef, elaborated systematically landform development rules of coral reef in the South China Sea, uncovered certain paleo-oceanographical conditions and the new tectonic movement features, studied the historical climate recorded by lagoon of coral reef in the South China Sea and marine geography of coral reef for the first time, investigated comprehensively the only fringing reef of the seacoast of South China continent on western shore of Xuwen County, summarized initially the history of modern coral reef research in China.

文中回顾其从事珊瑚礁研究的历程，并评述其珊瑚礁研究的学术成果：建立了我国第四纪珊瑚礁地质研究的典型剖面；开拓了我国珊瑚礁工程地质研究；系统论述了南海珊瑚礁地貌发展规律，揭示了某些古海洋学状况和新构造运动性质；首次研究了南海珊瑚礁潟湖沉积记录的历史气候；首次进行了我国珊瑚礁区综合海洋地理学研究；较全面开展华南大陆沿岸唯一岸礁徐闻西岸珊瑚礁调查研究；初步总结了我国现代珊瑚礁研究史。
