Earth system behavior and globe change related to coastal ocean, including sedimentation sysytem and sediment record process, polar coast and globe climate change record, and margin sea evolution dynamics.
Study on river-sea interaction and
plain coast development.
River –sea interaction played a very
important role in the development of coa
stal plain, plain coast and accumulated c
ontinental shelf.

North Jiangsu coastal plain used to be a palaeo embayment, developed
gradually from sand barrier lagoon under the interaction of Yangtze Riv
