The article discusses how the Yellow River delta has changed over time, focusing on erosion and deposition rates in different sections. In 1996, the river's course was redirected, leading to the formation of a new subdelta. The delta has been moving eastward, with different sections experiencing varying rates of erosion and deposition. The coast is divided into seven sections, each with its own characteristics. It is predicted that these erosion and deposition patterns will remain stable in the next 10 years, but the rates will slow down. Human activities are also impacting the coastline changes.
