Stage 1 (before 1940s): The evolution of the water ecological pattern in the Yangtze River was primarily a natural process driven by the natural scouring and siltation of the river-lake system.

Thrust-top basins (or piggyback, wedge-top, structural basins) are a very common feature in accretionary and orogenic wedges worldwide. Thrust-top basins are one of the most important sediment storage ...
