Yao Wang (王尧)

👨‍🎓 Master’s Student, China University of Geosciences, Beijing
🏔️ Research Interest: Geology, Mathematics, and Geochronology


🔬 Research Focus

My research revolves around earth system evolution, with key interests in:

  • 🌋 Petrology & Geochronology – Investigating the evolutionary pathways of the lithosphere.
  • 🔢 Computational geosciences – Employing mathematical and quantitative approaches to unravel physical and chemical mechanisms of geological phenomena.
  • 🏔️ Regional geology – Focusing on tectonic and magmatic evolution (e.g., the Himalayas and Sanjiang regions).

🌍 Vision

My long-term ambition is to conduct quantitative research in earth and planetary science, including:

  • ⏳ Temporal evolution – Tracing the evolutionary pathways of Earth’s lithosphere and mantle over geological timescales.
  • 🔄 Forward & inverse modeling – Constraining the forward and inverse pathways of magmatic evolution from source to surface.
  • 🪐 Planetary comparison – Exploring the origin and evolution of Earth and other rocky planets through comparative planetology.
