Abstract:The Mekong River is the largest river surrounding the East Sea and transports much terrigenous sediments to the southwestern East Sea.

In this study, clay mineralogy and elemental geochemistry of cores MD01-2393, MD97-2150, SO18383-3, 86GC, and KC09 from previous studies are employed to review sediment provenances in the southwestern East Sea and the role of the Mekong River in contributing terrig… Show more
