RIVERINE SEDIMENTS AND CHINESE COASTLINE CHANGES

RIVERINE SEDIMENTS AND CHINESE COASTLINE CHANGES

  • 摘要: The tectonic uplifting and depression in the coastal zones results in the anormal distribution of riverine sediments. The coastal zones of tectonic depression areas received about 95% of the riveine sediments, whereas the tectonic uplift belts received only 5% of that, which is the main reason for the variety of the coastline types and the changes in the coastline. On the basis of this anormal distribution of riverine sediments in Chinese coastline, this paper discusses the scope and time of the maximum transgression, the trend, rate and period of the coastline changes, and the impact of riverine sediments on the future changes in coastline.
