The source to sink process of terrigenous sediment from East Asia continent to the marginal seas is crucial for the understanding of land ocean interaction and marine sedimentary process in the West Pacific continental margin. This paper presents element geochemical and Sr-Nd isotopic records of core CM97 in the Changjiang (Yangtze River) Estuary and core MD06-3040 on the inner shelf of East China Sea, aiming to reconstruct the Changjiang sediment source to sink transport process and its major controlling mechanism during the Holocene. Driven by the asynchronous evolution of the Indian and East Asian summer monsoon, the provenance of sediments accumulated in the Changjiang Estuary gradually changed from the upper catchment during the late glacial period to the mid lower valley in the early mid Holocene. With the intensive agricultural cultivation and urbanization development in the catchment during the late Holocene, the major source of Changjiang sediment into the sea shifted back to the upper catchment, again. The high-frequency ENSO activity may superimpose the effect of human disturbances on sediment source-to-sink process in the late Holocene. Therefore, the Holocene provenance evolution of Changjiang sediments in the East China Sea witnessed the changes of governing sediment erosion process within a large catchment from monsoon climate-dominated to anthropogenic driving. Our study also suggests the strong effect of hydrodynamics in coastal and shelf environments on sedimentary geochemical compositions, which deserves more attention in further sediment provenance study.
