. The palaeochannels on the North China Plain can be classified as surface palaeochannels and shallow-buried palaeochannels and further divided into several types. The distribution of the palaeochannels in the North China Plain is radial on the piedmont plain, parallel

On the North China Plain, the shallow-buried palaeochannels have significance to both practical and theoretical geomorphology: water supply and potential problems related to construction projects. The 4 methods used in compiling the shallow-buried
Variations in the geomorphology of the North China Plain are related to differences between river deposits. The river deposits from different periods form the various geomorphological features; different combinations of palaeochannels form different

Geological structure plays an important role in the development of the palaeochannels in the North China Plain. Mountain uplift, subsidence of the plain, and tectonic movement of the basement since the Cenozoic, have interacted with the flashy
The late pleistocene and Holocene palaeochannels in the North China Plain were divided into 6 stages on the basis of 7 indicators: basal erosion surface and channel lag deposits, macropaleontology, organic matter content, ground water quality, heavy
activity, and 2 palaeoswamp development stages, or periods of fluvial inactivity, on the North China Plain.
