In the earlier 1950s Professor Zhang Zhuoyuan, the former president of CDUT and Professor Ren Tianpei joined the geological survey in Tibet as members of the Tibetan geological working group organized by the Central Government of China. Since the 1980s, research on the Q—T Plateau has reached a golden age, and recognized this, CDUT established the Resources and Environment Research Center of Qinghai—Tibet Plateau in order to lead and coordinate the research around the Plateau continuously and smoothly. There are often more than 50 geologists involved in research during any given year. Scientists from CDUT are now conducting many kinds of research programs covering the whole area of the Plateau, from the Himalayas in the south to the Tianshan Mountains in the north, from the Longmen Mountains and the West Yunnan Plateau in the east to Ali area in the west. Scientists from CDUT have completed cooperative research programs with foreign scientists from the U. S., France, U.K., Japan, Austria, Canada, Germany and Australia. Research subjects include National Key Basic Research, State Scientific Key Projects, National Natural Scientific Foundation Projects, National Outstanding Young Scientists Foundation Projects, as well as Basic Geological Survey, Mineral Resources Evaluation, Analysis of Potential Oil and Gas Resources, Geohazard Protection.. More than 40 projects and 6 geological maps in different scales (1∶1000000, 1∶200000, 1∶50000) have been completed.. Research funding has increased to billions of yuan. Thousands relevant research papers and works have been published. More than 20 projects have won scientific achievement awards at national, ministerial and provincial levels. Meanwhile, a research group of young and middle\|aged scientists led by Prof. Wang Chengshan has formed and is determined to devote itself to the Q—T geological research. Many of them have broken established rules and have become professors or gained prizes. To strengthen Q—T research, the Ministry of Land and Resources specially established the Laboratory of Continental Dynamics of the Qianghai—Tibet Plateau at CDUT in 1999. Academicians, Li Tingdong and Liu Baojun, are the Honorary Directors of the Lab and the Academic Committee of the Lab respectively. Professor Wang Chengshan and Prof. Zhu Jieshou are the Directors.展开更多
