Abstract

In order to analysis the variation and characteristic of the muddy tidal flat, this article provided the modified sediment transport equation (MSTE). It was proved to be true after verifying the measured data of 2000 and 2007 in the field, and it could be used to simulation calculation the muddy tidal flat. The results of study showed that the slope of the muddy tidal flat was increasing as 0.0020‰ / a from 1987 to 2010. It was eroded slowly, which was lower as 0.021‰ / a of the slope above the department of 0 m contour line. In the meantime, the slope was eroded increased as 0.022‰ / a of the slope below the department of 0 m contour line. It still below the equilibrium state of tidal flat in study area, and the slope would be further eroded steeply. The study results were very important on the protection of muddy tidal flat, and would provide practical reference on management and development in the near future.
