228Ra levels in the Yellow Sea and East China Sea were determined using the emanation method. The seawater radium was concentrated using an Mn-fiber and the 224Ra ingrowth was measured after about half a year when the initial 224Ra in the sample would have decayed. The 224Ra activity in the sample was evaluated using the decay dynamics relationship between parent 228Ra and daughter 228Th. The concentration and distribution feature of 228Ra in the Yellow Sea and East China Sea were studied and the 228Ra concentrations in the surface seawater of the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea were in the range 0.09–15.0 Bq/m3 with an average of 6.84 Bq/m3 during the summer cruise, and in the range 0.09–16.9 Bq/m3 with an average of 6.37 Bq/m3 during the winter cruise. The 228Ra distribution in the northern Yellow Sea was different from the southern Yellow Sea and East China Sea. The highest 228Ra activity of surface water was located in the middle of the northern Yellow Sea, but for the southern Yellow Sea and East China Sea, it decreased with increasing distance from China continent.
