“…More importantly, the authors argue that the two prograding packages were formed by autogenic forcing (i.e., changes in sediment supply rates; cf. Carvajal et al 2009), rather than by sea-level changes as proposed by Park et al (2000) and Lee et al (2014Lee et al ( , 2015. , in turn, tackle the problem of massive mud deposition in the HMB (i.e., ca.…”

“…3 Summary of the history of partitioning of the HMB. Note that the ages in Jin andChough (1998), Park et al (2000), and Lee et al (2014) are radiocarbon ages (BP), but in Lee et al (2015) and these are calibrated. The locations of the key surfaces on seismic profiles defining the sequences (or units) all differ, so that the stacking styles of the HMB strata are suggested to delineate the packages of the (sub)sequences resolution chirp profiles together with age constraints from cores.…”

“…Of these, the HMB mud deposit has long been debated in terms of the origin (or source) of the fine-grained sediments, its evolution, and causal building mechanisms (Jin and Chough 1998;Park et al 2000;Lee and Chu 2001;Lim et al 2007Lim et al , 2013Lee et al 2014).…”

On the Korean and adjacent Chinese epicontinental shelves of the Yellow Sea, a variety of mud deposits occur that all formed during the late Quaternary. The available evidence suggests that they were generated by different processes in different water depths and at different times. Over the last three decades, numerous studies have revealed the largescale features and stratigraphic evolution histories of some of these mud deposits, but the nature of the deposits as such and, in particular,

“…Additionally, the large tidal range and strong tidal currents of the region produce a complex and dynamic hydraulic regime in terms of sediment erosion and deposition (Alexander et al, 1991;Park et al, 2000;Lee and Chu, 2001;Lee et al, 2014). Late Quaternary sedimentary units may have been created and remain in the modern Yellow Sea (Yang and Sun, 1988;Alexander et al, 1991;Lee and Yoon, 1997;Jin and Chough, 1998;Park et al, 2000;Liu et al, 2004;Kong et al, 2006;Shinn et al, 2007;Lee et al, 2014Lee et al, , 2015. Such deposits are well recorded on the seafloor and bear witness to the complex interplay between depositional and erosional processes, which are closely related to sealevel changes.…”

To understand the transport pathways of muddy sediment of the Kunsan basin in Yellow Sea, grain sizes and clay mineral of 32 surface sediments and a sediment core were analyzed. In the study area, illite is predominant (63.4~71.9%), followed by chlorite (15.1~20.2%), kaolinite (10.3~17.2%) and smectite (2~6.9%), According to the spatial distribution of the clay minerals, illite, kaolinite+chlorite and smectite show relatively higher contents in the center of the north, northeast, and the south of the study area, respectively. Considering the spatial distribution of clay mineral contents the sand ridge alignments and tidal current pathways, the smectite particles were probably derived from the south of the study area, but kaolinite and/or chlorite particles were mainly transported from the Korean coastal zone. Meanwhile, down-core variation in the contents of clay minerals of the core revealed a distinct change in fine-grained muddy sediment provenance: muddy sediment input from the Korean coastal areas has increased while the input from China has decreased since the last 5,000 year ago, by showing the amount decrease of smectite and the increase of kaolinite+chlorite at the top layer of the late Holocene muddy sediment unit of the core.
