Hanyu Zhu is a PhD student in Paleontology and Stratigraphy. His main research interests focus on the application of Bayesian statistical methods in quantitative stratigraphy, including proxy-based stratigraphic correlation and statistical tuning of cyclostratigraphy. His current work uses geological records to constrain the evolution of early Cenozoic orbital parameters, especially the astrochronological framework of the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum.
