Based upon analysis of lithology, grain-size, and AMS14C dating for Core EC2005 located in the mud area off the Zhejiang-Fujian coast, the sedimentation rates and typical climatic events recorded in the inner shelf of the East China Sea（ECS） were discussed. Four large sedimentary stages and 4 rapid depositional periods disclosed by Core EC2005 well correspond to the climatic and sea level changes. The large sedimentary stages on millennium scale are mainly dominated by climatic changes, sea level variations, and the formation of mud wedge itself. The four rapid depositional periods on century time scale are controlled mainly by climate cooling or the strengthened East Asian winter monsoon（EAWM）, corresponding to the worldwide Younger Dryas, 7.3 ka cold event, Neoglaciation or 5.5 ka cold event, and 1.4 ka ice rafted debris event, respectively. The sedimentation rate of mud sediment in the inner shelf of the ECS on century time scale since the Holocene sea level highstand can be used as a sedimentology proxy for EAWM evolution.
