| Description |
The foraminiferal and microbenthos studies were carried out on samples collected from onshore soils/sediments from cultivated fields. The presence of exclusive marine organisms namely foraminifera in the soil of cultivated fields at distant onshore regions near New Wandoor (Andaman and Nicobar) suggested the areal extent of marine transgression due to tsunami waves on December 26, 2004. There is a need to investigate coastal marine sediments with multi-disciplinary approach to understnd impact of the said tsunami on the onshore regions
