Abstract

Based on the integrated study of sediment cores in the South China Sea, the sedimentation rates fea-ture during the Late Pleistocene has been shown. ( 1)On the whole, the rates of glacial stages is 1. 3 ～ 1. 6 timesfor the interglacials. ( 2) T rend analysis on the sedimentation rate is performed, which indicates that the rates of cores during δ¹⁸ O Stage 1 were high in the northeastern and south western continental slope. The features resulted from trend analysis were the main controlling factorsof the river distribution, monsoon and ocean current etc. The sedimentation rates of cores during δ¹⁸ O Stage 2 and 3 were similar, which were different from that of during δ ¹⁸ O Stage 1, only that were high on the northeastern continental slope. So the sediment environment in the South Chi-na Sea was significantly modified after the δ¹⁸ O Stage 2.Based on the study of sediment cores in the Eastern South China Sea, the constituents of the main matter and sedimentation fluxes feature were obtained. ( 1) From the last glacial stage, the sedimentation fluxes on the north- ern continental slope were higher than that of the deep basin. ( 2)The sedimentation fluxes of silicon -organic-sub-stances during the glacial stage were higher than that of the interglacials. ( 3) From the last glacial stage, the ter-rigenous constituents were 44 %above in the abyssal plains sediments.
