The East China Sea (ECS) is featured by the broad continental shelf, huge terrigenous sediment input and striking river-sea interaction during the Quaternary. Despite the numerous studies, mostly on the delta, coastal and inner shelf areas, the late Quaternary stratigraphy and sedimentary environment on the mid-outer ECS shelf were poorly documented. In particular, it is still controversial in issues such as the recognition of marine transgression deposits in the interglacial period and the occurrence and ages of deposits in the glacial period. This study presents new data of high-resolution s...

Resilient, or are we more destructive to nature than we thought. >> i think humans are more destructive to nature than we're aware of. it sounds obvious, but when people live in an area, and do hunt and fishing and are around in an area, it's worse for wildlife than a serious nuclear accident, it appears. >> it is extraordinary, but this is an intriguing situation. what impact has the radiation had on these animals? do you know, and how does this finding progress science? >> well, we know that in the first few weeks after the accident there was severe impacts on organisms, on plants, animals, ...

Westchester county would try to evacuate residents gradually. >> initially for people in the two-mile ring and a five-mile downwind span. >> reporter: the direction of the wind could determine who needs to evacuate, since indian point is located right on the hudson river in a valley between these hills, the wind tends to blow downstream towards manhattan. in japan, authorities urge americans in 50 miles of the crippled fukushima daiichi nuclear plant to evacuate. for indian point, that radius would encompass new york city just 25 miles away. rush hour in new york, heaven forbid there's a nucle...

Valley between these hills, the wind tends to blow downstream towards manhattan. in japan, u.s. authorities are urging americans within 50 miles of the crippled fukushima daiichi nuclear plant. that would encompass new york city. rush hour in new york, heaven forbid there's a nuclear accident near here. there is no way everyone is evacuating quickly. it would be nuclear gridlock. >> practically speaking, we couldn't really evacuate new york city. >> well, there's not a scenario we have where the dose rates going out would require an evacuation of new york city. that's been at least identified ...

Little lit lightly, based on the fact things were much worse than what they were saying. >> as we all know, it's hard to characterize things going on in this extreme condition without -- it's difficult to be precise. but i think the current situation with the very heavily radioactive water in the units out in puddles, in rooms and apparently in all three units, one, two, and three, is a serious -- i think it's being properly identified and characterized. those dose rates that are impeding the operators are extremely high. and as charles said, 15 minutes worth of work could get them a full annu...
