Comparison of Tidal Sand Ridges between the Subei Shoal and the West Korea Bay

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the Yellow Sea, two large terrains of tidal sand ridges developed, respectively, in the Subei Shoal and the West Korea Bay. Sediment supply, hydrodynamics and bedforms are critical factors to form them. In this paper, sediment composition, morphology of sand ridges, etc. are analyzed in terms of relevant factors and subsequently their formation mechanisms and evolution processes are careful compared.
