Paper Summary

The coast along the west side of the Bohai Sea changed over time, with the Yellow River shifting and land expanding. A bay formed between 1904-1929, and a wide V-shaped open bay developed from 1934-1976. Strong winds and storm tides caused erosion, coastline retreat, and the formation of tidal channels and islands.
