黄河三角洲体系

黄河水少沙多、频繁改道的特性使黄河在历史上不仅仅形成一个单一的河口三角洲(或称简单三角洲),而且形成了一个复杂庞大的三角洲体系。这种三角洲体系在目前世界各大河中堪称罕见。 自1855年以来,在渤海形成的现代黄河三角洲,发生过十余次尾闾摆动。每次尾闾摆动

THE HUANGHE RIVER DELTA SYSTEM

Owing to the frequent shifting of its distributary mouth the Huanghe River has a gigantic complex delta system. The system is of a superimposed multi-structure of both Bohai and Huanghai Seas. The multi-structure delta was formed in the period of stable drainage. The authors think that the formation and evolution of the Huanghe River Delta can be better understood if the various delta are taken as one system.
