The Sr concentrations and 87Sr/86Sr ratios have been measured for the Changjiang es-tuarine waters with a main purpose to understand physical and chemical processes at the estuary. The result shows that the Changjiang River water has higher Sr concentration (150 ng/g) and lower 87Sr86Sr ratio (0.7105) when compared with the average values (0.7119 for 87Sr/86Sr and 78ppb for Sr, respectively) of large world rivers. In the mixing process, no simple mixing of two end-members has been found according to the variations of Sr concentration and isotope ratios. There is an abrupt rise of Sr isotope ratios at the salinity about 1 mg/g during river-sea water mixing at the estuary. This abrupt rise of Sr isotope ratios is mostly ascribed to the strong water-sediment interaction, because there exists the same rise of suspended particulate materials due to energetic resuspension of bottom sediments.
