Reconstruction of sediment flux from the Changjiang (Yangtze River) to the sea since the 1860s
r a 200 .005 dress: Ke , China. ail.ouc.e Summary The Changjiang (Yangtze River) has been effectively gauged since the 1950s and demonstrates the transformation of a river system due to intensified human activities in its drainage basin over the past 50 yr. However, the 50-yr measurements of water and sediment are inadequate to show the long-term trend of sediment flux from the river to the sea...
متن کاملSedimentary features of the Yangtze River-derived along-shelf clinoform deposit in the East China Sea
A predominant sigmoidal clinoform deposit extends from the Yangtze River mouth southwards 800 km along the Chinese coast. This clinoform is thickest ( 40m) between the 20 and 30m isobaths and progressively thins offshore, reaching water depths of 60 and 90m and distances up to 100 km offshore. Clay mineral, heavy metal, geochemical and grain-size analyses indicate that the Yangtze River is the ...
متن کاملContribution of the Yangtze River to Ecosystem of the East China Sea
The Yangtze River of the China main land has recorded the decrease of sediment load in these 10 years because of construction of dams in the upstream region. The Three Gorgeous Dam, partly started its operation since July of 2003, has a significant contribution to reduce the sediment load with sedimentation. According to the Yangtze River hydrological report, the amount of discharge and the sed...
