Sedimentary framework of the modern Huanghe (Yellow River) delta

Geo-Marine Letters, 1986
The geometry, stratigraphy, and structure of recently deposited Huanghe (Yellow River) Delta sediments were examined by high resolution subbottom profiles and medium-penetration boomer profiles. The results indicate that the active (post-1976) subaqueous delta advances as a single thin localized lobe with a maximum thickness of only 15 m.

Study on Ecological Environment Assessment of Yellow River Delta

Advanced Materials Research, 2013
Some eco-environmental factors are analyzed by RS, and population and GDP spatial distribution are obtained from statistical data. By combining AHP methods for determining weights, comprehensive index method is used to evaluate the eco-environmental quality of Yellow River Delta (YRD) on three scales: raster, administrative region, and delta.

Study on the Liquefaction Properties of Silt at Yellow River Delta

Journal of Ocean University of China, 2018
The seabed of the Yellow River Delta is formed by the rapid deposition of sediments from the Yellow River. Recent researches have shown that the geological hazards in the Yellow River Delta are mainly related to the liquefaction of silty seabed under cyclic loading.

Erodibility of Seabed Sediments in the Modern Yellow River Delta

2019
The erodibility of intertidal sediments is a key factor affecting coastal erosion and sediment resuspension. In this chapter, a geological engineering study is undertaken to determine the spatial distribution of sediment erodibility in the modern Yellow River Delta. The critical shear stress of sediments is measured both with a mini-annular flume and a

Overbank and channelfill deposits of the modern Yellow River delta

Sedimentary Geology, 1994
Abstract The Huanghe is noted for its high transport rate of silt and clay, which may reach depth-averaged values of 200 kg m−3 during peak discharge. The sediment load transported through the river on entering the delta plain, amounts to 1012 kg per year. In contrast to most other large deltas only one distributary channel is active at any one time.

Nitrate pollution of groundwater in the Yellow River delta, China

Hydrogeology Journal, 2007
Nitrate pollution of groundwater in the Yellow River delta, China is an important issue related not only to nitrate dispersion and health concerns but also to mass transport and interactions of groundwater, sea, and river waters in the coastal area.

[Evolution process and related driving mechanisms of Yellow River Delta since the diversion of Yellow River].

Ying yong sheng tai xue bao = The journal of applied ecology, 2012
Based on the 23 sheets of remote sensing images from 1976 to 2009, in combining with the water and sediment data from Lijin station and the annual precipitation data of Yellow River Basin from 1976 to 2008, this paper quantitatively analyzed the features of water and sediment discharge from Yellow River, and the evolution process of Yellow River Delta ...

Sediment Resuspension Process in the Modern Yellow River Delta

2019
In this chapter, the process of sediment erosion and resuspension was studied through in situ observations and wave flume experiments. Sediments are more frequently resuspended by wind waves in the Yellow River Delta, the contribution of waves and currents to sediment resuspension was evaluated while also a conceptual model for sediment resuspension in

Support for the sustainable development of the Yellow River Delta

2011
The environment in the Yellow River Delta (YRD) is under stress from large socio-economic pressures, leading to air, soil and water pollution. A Sino-Dutch project the Sustainable Development YRD project (1995 – 1997) was undertaken with the principle goal of contributing to the sustainable, long-term development of the Yellow River Delta.
