Microplastics in offshore sediment in the Yellow Sea and East China Sea, China

Environmental Pollution, 2019
Microplastic particles are a global concern due to their widespread and growing threat to marine and coastal environments. To improve knowledge of microplastic pollution in China, we investigated 25 sediment samples collected with a box corer in the Southern Yellow Sea and East China Sea off the coast of China.

Sediments in the East China Sea

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering, 2004
This paper describes measurements of sediments during the 2000-2001 Asian Seas International Acoustic Experiment in the East China Sea. A number of techniques were used to infer properties of these sediments, including gravity and piston cores, subbottom profiling using a water gun, long-range sediment tomography, and in situ measurement of ...

Nutrient conditions in the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2003
Abstract This paper discusses the distributions of micronutrients in the Yellow Sea (YS) and the East China Sea (ECS), based on the data obtained during field observations. It is pointed out that there are abundant nutrients in the area of the east and northeast of the Changjiang River estuary throughout the year.

Hypoxia in autumn of the East China Sea

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2020
Hypoxia (O2 ≤ 2 mg L-1) can severely threaten the survival of marine life and alter the biogeochemical cycles of coastal ecosystems. Its impacts are dependent on its duration. In the present study, hypoxia was observed in autumn at the end of October 2011. It may be one of the latest recorded annual hypoxic events in the East China Sea (ECS).

Swells of the East China Sea

Journal of Ocean University of China, 2017
Over the past few decades, an increasing number of marine activities have been conducted in the East China Sea, including the construction of various marine structures and the passage of large ships. Marine safety issues are paramount and are becoming more important with respect to the likely increase in size of ocean waves in relation to global ...

Geohazards in the Yellow Sea and East China Sea

Offshore Technology Conference, 1985
ABSTRACT Shallow submarine geology in the Yellow and East China seas is dicta ted mostly by the proximity of the Yellow and Yangtze Rivers and by the late Quaternary history of the area. Most serious potential geological hazards (buried channels throughout the area, shallow gas in areas with high rates of modern ...

The Kuroshio in the East China Sea

Journal of Marine Systems, 2000
Observations of the hydrography and water movements in the East China Sea in areas where the bottom topography interferes with the Kuroshio indicate a vigorous exchange between the Kuroshio and a continental shelf water mass that is relatively cool and fresh. South of about 28°N, the Kuroshio runs into the continental shelf and is uplifted.

Tidal Computation of the East China Sea. The Yellow Sea and the East Sea

1991
Abstract The M 2 tidal phenomena in the entire surrounding seas of Korea Peninsula have been investigated under the condition of one model area, majorly to understand which factors govern the amphidromic system in each sub-area. In this study two-dimensional numerical model based upon an implicit scheme has been used.
