MARINE TRANSGRESSIONS AND REGRESSIONS IN EAST CHINA SINCE LATE PLEISTOCENE EPOCH

In the quarternary sediments of the coastal plain and shallow sea shelf in East China,there are two continental and three marine facies overlapping in orde in layers,and containing quantity of fossils which demarcated cold or warm climates since Late Pleistocene Epoch,although neither ice-edge nor ice-water sediment have been found.The time of formarion chow that continental and marine facies sediments.Paleogeomagnetic and C¹⁴ dating agrees wiht the alternating times of the glacial and interglacial periods of the world.When the and time series of the paleo-sea-levels and the paleo-offshore areas are analyzed,the results indicate that sea level variation in East China is basically consistent with global climatesea level variating periods.
