  • Abstract
    Yellow River route to the sea has changed for more than ten times since the year of 1855. Although the delta is always depositing, some time it´s eroding. Especially in recent years, because the water & sand continued to reduce, the coastline of Qingshuigou eroded up to 1.45Km/year. This article first studies the change of the coastline and the end of river, then primary analyses the confulence of the water & sand condition to making land and volitity; last, discusses the function of Remote Sensing detection to Yellow River delta by utilizing the satellite Remote Sensing photography gained in 1980 combining the obtained data.
