摘要

Abstract

There are two different opinions on the formation history of Huanghe (Yellow) River. One postulates that Huanghe River might have come into existence before Tertiary. The other supposes that it joined up into a long river only in the last stage of Late Pleistocene. The appearance of Huanghe River is believed to have close relation to the uplifting of Tibetan Plateau. It is not likely that it could have come into being before its high elevation riverhead was formed. Today Huanghe River occurred probably during the recession of the sea in glacial periods. In the last glacial age

the climate was very harsh in the area north of the modern estuary of Changjiang (Yangtse) River; some areas were permafrost and the others barren deserts. At that time

eolation was the major exogenic force on exposed shelf. Beginning from 12 Ka BP

the global climate warmed up

resulting in gradual disappearance of continental mountain glaciers retreated

and sea level rose. Consequently

Huanghe River was replenished with water to become modern river system. With continued rising of sea level

Huanghe River delta moved continuously eastward.
