Our study focus in two topics, one is “mineral occurrences and chemistry”, the other is “paleoclimate changes and typhoon’s tracks”. In the research of mineralogy, we studied (1) the synthesis and adsorption of zeolite minerals and (2) the occurrence and investigation of gemstones. We have researched “quartz, nephrite, blue chalcedony, ruby and sapphire” etc. The main topic of these research focused on hydrothermal deposits analyzing its fluid inclusions, intergrowth minerals, and chemical compostions. Our research apply to identification of gemstone for the characters of different localities. On the other hands, we also have done the preventing of mineral scaling in geothermal power plan, which used the superfluid CO2 to avoid carbonates precipitation for extending the life of pipeline.

In paleoclimate research, we have done the sediments of lake cores in North China and Taiwan. We analyzed the mineral and chemical compositions, grain size, and magnetic susceptibility. These proxies can help us to judge the source of sediments, intensity of chemical weathering and extreme rainfall events. The lake sediments also can recorded the events of volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. We discover the lake records can combine with the historical records for probing the paleotyphoon records, which reflects the tracks of TC highly coinciding with NAO and ITCZ shits.

Hydrogeology and Groundwater Lab (Associate Prof. Yung-Chia Chiu)

GH1-Room 402D ext.6512

    Groundwater surveys have been a top priority for geohydrology and engineering applications. Our group seeks to understand the intricacy and variability of groundwater system, so we aim at studying it by modeling and numerical methods as well as hydrologic experiments to combine with the local tests and long-term monitoring. Also, we compare various hydrologic datas to assess the groundwater system and analyze the current status so that we could formulate appropriate strategies to solve geology-related problems, and then applied them to geological studies.
