Spatiotemporal evolution of the Jehol Biota: Responses to the North China craton destruction in the Early Cretaceous [PDF]
Significance The Early Cretaceous Jehol Biota is a terrestrial lagerstätte that produces exquisitely preserved fossils that have furnished enormous evidence on the origins and early evolution of diverse vertebrate groups.

Sedimentary environment and depositional evolution of the Mesoproterozoic Bingmagou Formation on the southern margin of the North China Craton [PDF]
The Precambrian sedimentary strata on the southern margin of the North China Craton are well developed and widely exposed, making the region ideal for the study of depositional processes. However, because of the length of the depositional history and the

Craton Destruction Induced by Drastic Drops in Lithospheric Mantle Viscosity
The disruption of the mantle roots of cratons is common after cratonization. Craton destruction, which is characterized by severe lithospheric thinning, extensive thrust and extensional deformation, basin filling, and intense thermal activities, is ...

Eoarchean to Paleoproterozoic Crustal Evolution in the North China Craton [PDF]
<p>The early evolution of continental crust, particularly its lower layer, during the first 2.0 billion years of Earth history remains enigmatic. Here, we present the first coupled in-situ U-Pb, Lu-Hf and O isotope data for the Precambrian zircons from fourteen deep-crustal xenoliths from five localities in the North China craton.
