With the help of the data about Cd in the southeast and southwest waters of Jiaozhou bay and models of horizontal and vertical matter content variation proposed by the authors, horizontal loss amount and vertical diluted amount of Cd content in the surface layer and bottom layer are calculated, and the model block diagrams of horizontal and vertical variation of Cd content are determined. The calculation shows that in August, the absolutely horizontal loss amount of Cd content in the surface layer and bottom layer was 0.06-0.43μg/L, and the relatively horizontal loss amount of Cd content in the surface layer and bottom layer was 42.85-57.33%. In the southeast and southwest waters of the bay, the absolutely verticaldiluted amount of Cd content in the surface layer and bottom layer was 0.24-0.61μg/L, and the relatively vertical diluted amount was 75.00-81.33%. In the process of horizontal migration in August, in the surface waters, the main sea current carried Cd content through a circle of the nearshore waters in the bay, and there was almost no source of Cd content. Therefore, in the horizontal migration process of Cd content, after a long journey, the Cd content in the surface layer and bottom layer got a lot of losses. Specifically, the absolutely horizontal loss amount was 0.06- 0.43μg/L, and the relatively horizontal loss amount was 42.85-57.33%, which proved Dongfang Yang’s migration law of matter content put forward by the authors. In the process of vertical migration in August, the Cd content transported by the main sea current was higher in the southeast waters of the bay, and the vertical diluted amount of Cd content in the surface layer and bottom layer was 81.33%. The main sea current reached the waters of the southwest bay from the waters of the southeast bay through a circle of the nearshore waters in the bay. At this time, the Cd content transported by the main sea current was relatively low in the waters of the southwest bay, but the vertical diluted amount of Cd content in the surface layer and bottom layer was still very high, which was 75.00%. It reveals that the vertical diluted amount of Cd content in the surface layer and bottom layer was very high in any water area, whether the Cd content is high or low.
