摘要

Abstract

Estuaries and coasts are conjunctions of four spheres (atmosphere

lithosphere

hydrosphere and biosphere) and important matter and energy convergence/divergence zones

where developed economy

dense population and highly intensive exploitation induce adverse environmental changes and serious destruction of resources

which have great impacts on coastal sustainable development

especially as the highly intensive development in river basins has direct and pronounced effects on estuaries and their adjacent coasts. In the new century

China's estuaries and coast are faced with four main challenges: sharp decrease of sediment discharge into the sea

rapid increase of pollution matter into the sea

loss of coastal wetland

and the impacts of global sea level rise on the coastal lowlands of China. Therefore

it is undoubtedly very important and urgent to carry out studies on estuarine and coastal environmental changes

in order to resolve the issue of national sustainable development

especially that of rational use of coastal zone resources.
