On March 17, the Chinese Paleontological Society released the selection results of the "Top Ten Advances in Paleontology in China in 2022" in Nanjing. A batch of international-level scientific research achievements led by research institutes and universities such as the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences were selected.
The "Top Ten Advances in Paleontology in China in 2022" selected this time include:
(1) The Silurian fossil bank reveals the rise and diversity of early jawed vertebrates
(2) Ancient Genome Reveals the Formation History of Humans in Xinjiang Over the Past 5,000 Years
(3) The ultrastructure reveals that Z. yunnanensis has a primitive vertebrate pharyngeal skeleton
(4) Acne cyst is an early molting animal, not the earliest deuterostomes
(5) Sexual selection promotes head and neck-specific evolution of giraffes
(6) Pigment processing and innovative composite tools used by modern East Asian humans 40,000 years ago
(7) Evolution of key ecological behaviors of Mesozoic insects
(8) The world's first tiger ancient genome
(9) Changes in Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Content Reveal the Mechanism of the End-Permian Mass Extinction
(10) Global warming and ocean hypoxia in the late Paleozoic icehouse climate (parallel progress 10)
(11) Triassic-Jurassic transition volcanism and the impact of terrestrial ecosystem fluctuations (parallel progress 10)
The selection and release of the "Top Ten Advances in Paleontology in China" each year showcases the major discoveries and scientific research achievements made in the field of paleontology in China in that year, and promotes the development and scientific communication of palaeontology in China and the world.
