王曰伦对我国前寒武纪地质研究的贡献——纪念王曰伦教授诞辰一百周年

Wang Yuelun's Contributions to the Study of Precambrian Geology in China

王曰伦(1903—1981年)是著名地质学家、我国前寒武纪地质学的开拓者和奠基人之一。他对我国前寒武纪地质研究的主要贡献是:初步确立西南地区早寒武世地层层序和与震旦系的分界;初步奠定了五台山区早前寒武纪构造地层基础;参与发现、命名和进一步证实“蓟县运动”的存在,正确解决了华北震旦系与寒武系的分界问题;最早发现南北震旦系属同名异纪的上下关系;为全国各地上前寒武系划分和对比做了大量开创性工作,奠定了坚实的基础。他是坚持实践和创新的楷模。

Prof. Wang Yuelun is a famous geologist,as well as a pioneer and a founder of Pre- cambrian geology in China. His main contributions to the study of China's Precambrian geology in- clude:Primarily establishing the strata sequence of the Early Cambrian System the division between Sinian System and Cambrian System in Southwest area;primarily settling the strucure and strata basis of the Early Precambrian in the Wutaishan Mountain area; taking part in discovering, naming and fur ther verifying the existence of the Jixian Movement;properly solving the problem of division between Sanian System and Cambrian System;being the first to discover the context for the difference between South Sanian System and North Sinian System;having done a lot of creative work in Subdivision and Correlation of the upper Precambrian in the whole of China. He is a model worker who persists in practice and innovation.
