Abstract

Abstract

On the basis of the high-resolution single-channel sparker seismic profiles and MBES (multibeam echo sounding),the LSRs (linear sand ridges) on Stratum U₂ and Stratum U₁₄ on the ECS (East China Sea) shelf are identified and contrasted each other,their form ages are different,more than 200 ka.The sand ridges on Stratum U₁₄ which is bellow seafloor 90 m are buried sand ridges,and belong to TST (transgressive systems tract) of 320~200 ka BP,and the upper bounding surfaces of the sand ridge units are therefore considered as the MFS (maximum flooding surface) of this transgressive.The sand ridges on Stratum U₂ are recessive sand ridges,which have belonged to the TST since the LGM (last glacial maximum),and their upper bounding surfaces are the MFS of the LGM.Although the form ages of two sand ridge units are different,more than 200 ka,and their stratigraphy positions are different,more than 90 m,the general strikes of sand ridges are similar.It is suggested that the palaeo-tidal components of the ECS have been steady since 200 ka.Four substages sand ridges are identified from the stratig raphy of Stratum U₂,and four trends of sand ridges are distinguished from the topogr aphic map of the MBES too.These multistages and multitrend sand ridges are the evidences that the evolution of submarine to pography of the ECS has met the response of sea-level stepped changes since the LGM.
