Description 240-244
The present study has revealed that the NE-SW and WNW-ESE trending sinistral
faults are very active along the Tamil Nadu coast and the same have caused
considerable slope modifications along the Coleroon and Karungalar rivers which
are well -manifested in the land , water and mudflat distribution pattern.
Similarly, the progradation of the land in Vedaranniam nose is due to the rise
of Pattukottai- Mannargudi area and the time transgressive modifications of the
Vedaranniam back water indicates the opening up of the N-S trending
Pleistocene-Holocene faults.
