Land subsidence of the Yellow River Delta in China driven by river sediment compaction
Science of The Total Environment, 2021Many of the world's largest deltas are sinking due to multiple natural and anthropogenic causes. This is particularly evident for the modern Yellow River Delta (YRD) in China, which is one of the most dynamic coastal systems on Earth. The YRD has experienced complicated patterns of accretion and erosion as well as significant compaction settlements ...

Spatial-temporal characters of evapotranspiration in the Yellow River Delta
Proceedings 2011 IEEE International Conference on Spatial Data Mining and Geographical Knowledge Services, 2011Evapotranspiration (ET) is an important variable for water and energy balances on the earth's surface. Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land (SEBAL) is an image-processing model that calculates ET over vast areas. In this study, time series of MODIS data in 2009 and meteorological data are used to estimate ET over the Yellow River Delta (YRD) by ...

Yellow River Sediment as a Soil Amendment for Amelioration of Saline Land in the Yellow River Delta
Land Degradation & Development, 2014AbstractSoil salinization and sedimentation in the Yellow River Delta pose significant environmental concerns in China. This study demonstrated for the first time that the Yellow River sediment can be used as a soil amendment to remediate the salt‐affected soil. Four treatments including the control (CK), Yellow River sediment application at 70 Mg ha−1

Evaluation of wetland ecosystem services value of the yellow river delta
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2021Analyzing and evaluating the ecosystem service value of wetlands can provide technical support and theoretical basis for regional socio-economic development, ecological environmental protection, and other planning measures. Based on the factors of hydrology, meteorology, society, economy, resources, environment, and culture, the wetland ecosystem ...

The subaqueous delta of the modern Huanghe (Yellow River)
Geo-Marine Letters, 1986The subaqueous delta of the Huanghe (Yellow River) has been studied using high-resolution acoustic systems. There are many subtle variations in sea floor morphology and sediment geometries; smooth, featureless areas are rare. The main components of the subaqueous delta include broad, shallow channels; moderately disturbed areas with near-surface cut ...

Development of Rural Banks in Yellow River Delta
2010The current status of new-type rural financial institutions in the Yellow River delta is summarized. It is pointed out that these financial institutions have improved the development of economy concerning agriculture, rural areas and peasants, but due to the shortage of capital, deficit and many other reasons, the outlets is fewer, which can not serve ...

Erosion Survey of the Modern Yellow River Delta
2019In this chapter, the erosion status of the subaqueous Yellow River Delta is quantitatively detected according to the yearly observed topographic profiles. Accurate data about beach evolution were achieved by ten in situ measurements which were taken from the abandoned lobe beach in the north of the Yellow River Delta from December 2008 to December 2009.

Green GDP Accounting in Yellow River Delta
2016The economic losses caused by water pollution, air pollution and noise pollution in the Yellow River Delta are estimated, and the green GDP is calculated. The results show that water pollution caused economic losses of about 541.5814 million yuan in the Yellow River Delta in 2010; particulate matter caused health risk economic losses of 163.1369 ...

Holocene development of the Yellow River's subaqueous delta, North Yellow Sea
Marine Geology, 2004High-resolution seismic profiles from the North Yellow Sea reveal a 20–40-m-thick subaqueous clinoform delta that wraps around the eastern end of the Shandong Peninsula, extending into the South Yellow Sea. This complex sigmoidal-oblique clinoform, containing an estimated 400 km 3 of sediment, overlies prominent relict transgressive surfaces.
