Research Abstract |
The study tried to explain the relationship between the delta(involving the reclaimed land) development after the Edo period and the earth supply from the man-made barren land in the upper river basin. As the result of the research works the progradation of the delta fronts of the River Saba and the River Fushino became active around 1ka. In each river basin many ceiling rivers are recognized near the barren lands.
