Everything about The Yellow Sea totally explained
The
Yellow Sea is the name given to the northern part of the
East China Sea, which is a
marginal sea of the
Pacific Ocean. It is located between
mainland China and the
Korean peninsula. Its name comes from the sand particles that color its water, originating from the
Yellow River.
The innermost bay of the Yellow Sea is called the
Bohai Sea (previously Pechihli Bay or Chihli Bay). Into it flows both the Yellow River (through
Shandong province and its capital
Jinan) and
Hai He (through
Beijing and
Tianjin).
Liaodong Bay, between the Chinese
Liaoning province and northwestern
North Korea is also part of the Yellow Sea.
The Bohai Sea and Liaodong Bay are separated by the
Liaodong Peninsula, with
Dalian at its southernmost point.
Environment
The
intertidal mudflats of the Yellow Sea are of great importance for
migratory waders or shorebirds. Surveys show that the area is the single most important site for migratory birds on northward migration in the entire
East Asian - Australasian Flyway, with a minimum number of two million birds passing through at the time, with about half that number using it on southward migration.
