We measured the total, truly dissolved (&amp;lt;10 kDa), colloidal (10 kDa–0.2 μm), and particulate phases (&amp;gt;0.2 μm) of  210 Pb and  210 Po in the East China Sea (ECS) shelf water and the East Sea (Japan Sea). In order to examine the behaviors of  210 Pb and  210 Po in different marine environments, we compiled our results with previously reported data in the same region and in the northwestern Pacific Ocean (NWPO). The proportions of the truly dissolved, colloidal, and particulate phases in the shelf water were 32, 27, and 41% for  210 Pb and 49, 32, and 19% for  210 Po, respectively. Based on a steady-state scavenging model,  210 Pb and  210 Po showed higher (3.0 ± 0.6 year –1 ) and lower (0.3 ± 0.2 year –1 ) scavenging rates, respectively, in the shelf water than those in the NWPO and the East Sea. A non-steady-state model, accounting for the residence time of the shelf water, also showed twice more efficient removal rate of  210 Pb in the shelf water than that in the NWPO and the East Sea. In contrast, there was the net input of  210 Po in the shelf water relative to the large removal in the NWPO and the East Sea. The large proportions of total dissolved (truly dissolved + colloidal)  210 Po (&amp;gt;80%) in the shelf water indicate active regeneration of  210 Po from the sinking particles and the surface sediments. Our results suggest that the ECS shelf is the source for Po in the northwestern Pacific marginal seas, a proxy for sulfur group elements (S, Se, and Te), whereas it is the efficient sink for Pb, together with other particle-reactive trace elements.
