Scope
GB/T 18190-2017 is the English-translated version of 海洋学术语 海洋地质学.
GB/T 18190-2017 defines the basic terms of marine geology and belongs to the Chinese series of oceanographic terminology standards.
Its terms are grouped into marine geomorphology, from coastline, coastal zone, backshore and foreshore to coast types, estuaries and deltas, coral reefs and seabed landforms; marine sediments, with sedimentary environments and facies, gravity deposits, deep-sea clays and oozes and seabed minerals; seafloor structure, with plate tectonics, trench-arc-basin systems, mid-ocean ridges and geophysics; marine geological hazards; and marine geological and geophysical surveys.
Each definition gives the Chinese term with its English equivalent, often with a note. It applies to management, research, teaching and related work in marine geology.
It replaces GB/T 18190-2000, was issued on 1 November 2017 and has applied since 1 May 2018.

This standard was drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009.
This standard replaces GB/T 18190-2000 Oceanographic terminology marine geology. This standard compared with GB/T 18190-2000, In addition to editorial changes outside the main technical changes are as follows.
--- Added definition of terms such as outer arc island, continental island, marine island, accumulation island, closed depth, beach shoulder, dry beach, erosion rate 2.1.14, 2.1.15, 2.1.16, 2.1.19, 2.1.29, 2.3.8, 2.3.9, 5.1.2);
--- Removed the definitions of terms such as river delta, wave delta and tidal delta (see the 2000 edition of 2.5.4, 2.5.5, 2.5.6);
--- Removed the definition of duplicate terms (see the 2000 edition of 4.2.3,4.3.2,4.3.3,4.3.10,4.3.14,4.3.15,4.3.16,4.4.2, 4.4.5);
--- According to the actual application of marine geology terms, combined with the development of marine geology at home and abroad, the terms were carried out Revised and improved (such as 2.1.3,2.1.4,2.1.5,2.1.6,2.1.10,2.1.13,2.1.20,2.1.20,2.1.23,2.3.3,2.3.4,2.3. 6, 2.3.7, 2.3.8, 2.3.10, 2.3.17, 2.3.19, 2.3.22, 2.4.4, 2.4.5, 2.2.7, 2.5.1, 2.5.2, 2.5.3, 2.5. 4,2.6.3, 2.7.7, 2.8.10, 2.8.16, 2.8.21, 3.1.2, 3.2.1, 3.2.12, 3.2.13, 3.2.15, 3.3.3, 3.5.1, 3.7.4, 3.7. 5,4.3.2, 5.3.1);
--- Modify part of the English terminology explanation (see 2.1.13,2.2.13,2.2.14,2.3.10,3.1.1,4.5.4,5.1.6);
--- Part of the definition of the split into two definitions of terms, such as the back (tidal zone), the inner (sub-sea zone) were split, change Into a backshore, tidal zone, the inland, tidal zone, and the definition of the terms were respectively (see 2.1.5,2.1.10,2.1.7,2.1.11);
--- Modify the name of some terms (see 2.3.10, 2.5.3, 2.6.2, 2.6.3, 2.8.2, 5.1.5, 5.2.5);
--- Modify the standard foreword and scope;
--- Added references.
1 Scope
This standard defines the basic terminology of marine geology and its definition.
This standard applies to marine geology and related fields of management, research, teaching and related activities.
2 Oceanography
2.1 Marine geomorphology General terms
2.1.1 Coastline
Years of tides when the average tide bit line marks the land and sea boundaries.
2.1.2 Coast
Upward coastline, oceanic force significantly affect the narrow strip of land.
2.1.3 Coastal zone
The transition zone between ocean and land.
Note: The upper limit of the coastal zone is the farthest boundary that modern seawater can play on the land, with the lower limit being the deepest boundary of the seabed affected by the waves or the sediments of the modern coast The farthest limit of the sea that can be reached.
2.1.4 Seashore
The marginal zone of the sea composed of coastal sediments.
Note: Back Bay, foreshore collectively known as the seafront.
2.1.5 Backshore
The area between the coastline and the average high tide line.
Note: The backyard is used for gravel and is generally flooded with seawater only during storm surges.
2.1.6 Foreshore
The average climax line to chart 0m isobaths between the strip. Foreshore is generally used for gravel coasts.
2.1.7 Inshore
Low tide line to the sediment can not be the role of the lateral movement of the wave (that is, closed water depth) zone.
Note: The inland is generally used for gravel coasts.
