The evolution pattern of the Yellow River estuary is influenced by sediment, waves, and coastal engineering works. The coastal evolution tends towards the northeast surf, and erosion in the Diaokou River estuary is caused by reduced sediment and sea dike erosion. To manage this, planners should prioritize the sides of the estuary for flow path and redirect the Qingshuigou sink channel towards Laizhou Bay.
