The features of the hydrological regime, modern morphological structure, fluviomorphological processes, and the history of formation of the Yangtze River mouth area are discussed. The influence of the huge river water and sediment runoff and tides on the hydrological and morphological processes in the Yangtze River mouth is shown. The possible impact of construction of the large waterworks “Three Gorges” on the hydrological and morphological processes in the Yangtze River mouth is roughly evaluated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
