与时俱进,发展中国大地构造学

Keeping pace with the times to develop the tectonics of China

论述了黄汲清经典著作《中国主要地质构造单位》的深远影响。它是中国大地构造研究的奠基之作和经典著作 ,其基本内容和主要论点已为实践所证实 ,并为国内外地质界所认同。这部著作不仅全面系统地总结了过去 ,而且对一些重大地质问题进行了科学预测 ,为后人指出了研究的方向。它是一部你什么时候读都有味道 ,都会受到新的启发的著作。黄汲清的学术思想是民主的、开放的 ,与时俱进的。在《中国主要地质构造单位》中 ,他运用阿尔冈活动论的思想 ,阐述了中国大地构造的动力演化过程。之后 ,他又吸收了裴伟深断裂的思想 ,深入研究了中国的深断裂。 2 0世纪 70年代 ,他指导他的学生将多旋回思想与板块构造结合 ,在中国大地构造图上首次详细标绘了中国境内的板块缝合带 ,从全球动力学角度 ,将他 1 94 5年提出的亚洲三种构造型式发展为古亚洲、特提斯和滨太平洋三大构造域。黄汲清的研究始终是从东亚地质的实际情况出发 ,他曾多次指出 :中国是全球构造研究中的一块宝地 。

On Major Tectonic Forms of China written by T. K. Huang (HUANG Jiqing) is a classic and foundation of the study on tectonics of China. Its basic concepts and main arguments have been accepted by geologists at home and abroad. The book not only systematically summarized the previous knowledge in this field, but also pronounced original and farsighted judgments on some major questions, which pointed the direction of study for successors. It is an interesting and inspiring book whenever you read. The academic thinking of Huang Jiqing is democratic, opening and advanced. HUANG Jiqing gave a brilliant exposition with E. Argand’s mobilism thought as to the dynamical evolution process of the tectonics in On Major Tectonic Forms of China. Then, he absorbed the quintessence of A. V. Pejve’s thinking on deep faults, and made intensive researches on the deep faults of China. In the 1970s, under his direction, his students combined plate tectonics with theory of polycyclic movements, the plate suture zones were first particularly plotted on the Tectonic Map of China, and the three tectonic types of Asia which were advanced by HUANG Jiqing in 1945 developed into three tectonic domains—the paleo-Asian domain, the circum-Pacific domain and the Tethyan domain from the viewpoint of global dynamics. He consistently proceeded from the reality in the study of geology of eastern Asia, and pointed out many times that China would be a precious place for research on global tectonics; that Chinese ought to make more contributions to the geologic development of the world. HUANG Jiqing’s magnificent academic thought will live forever in our memory.
