摘要
This paper propounds that the origin and evolution of the Southwet Basin (SWB) in the South China Sea (SCSh) are closely related with those of the SCS, reviews various viewpoints on its origin age with a large gap between the oldest age and the youngest age. offers some suggestions on the SWB’s origin age and gives some proposals to ascertain satisfactorily the origin and evolution, and multi-phasal and multiaxial spreading of the SCS and SWB.
