TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors used the Landsat satellite images to study the spatial and temporal shoreline changes of the southern Yellow River Delta in 1976-2016, and a new method was proposed to correct fluctuations in instantaneous shoreline positions caused by tidal height and seasonal sea level changes.

TL;DR: In this article, four end members were inverted from surface sediment grain size data from the South Yellow Sea by using the end member (EM) model, and the sediment provenance and hydrodynamic meanings of each EM were discussed based on the frequency and spatial distributions of the EMs.

TL;DR: In this article, the envelope lines of instantaneous shoreline positions identified in 436 Landsat satellite images from 1975 to 2016 were used to demonstrate the evolution of the eastern Nanhui mudflat high and low tide lines in a detailed, quantitative way.

TL;DR: In this paper, a time series spanning about 6.3 ka of terrestrial lignin proxies from sediment core N02 from Central Yellow Sea Mud that has well-preserved high-resolution sedimentary records (24 yr/cm average spacing) was compiled.

TL;DR: In this paper, the evolution of the two newborn Huanghe Delta lobes was mainly influenced by the river sediment discharges, river channel changes, course shifts, floods, droughts, and marine hydrodynamic forces.
