主　　题：South Yellow Sea sedimentary sequence deposit of eddy environmental evolution 

摘      要：Northwest of Cheju Island in the eastern South Yellow Sea there is an arc patch of muddy deposit which coincides with an anticlokwise eddy and thus is referred to as muddy deposit of eddy. Two drilling wells, the YSDP 102 well and the YSDP 103 well, penetrated the muddy deposit and revelated the sedimentary sequence in the sea area during the last deglaciation and the Holocene. Based on shallow seismic profiles, sedimentary features and dating data, stratigraphic units formed in the eastern South Yellow Sea, documents the path, time and process of the earliest post-glacial transgression in the South Yellow Sea are presented, the formation of the Yellow Sea warm current and its control over the Yellow Sea sedimentation are discussed, and deals with the source of the muddy deposit is dealt with.
