Description 144-148
Long-term erosional/accretional trend along Kerala coast is studied using satellite imageries and aerial photographs for the-year 1990 and the survey of India topographic maps of 1967. Based on this study the sectors undergoing erosion/accretion are identified. It is found that 148 km of the Kerala coast (including some areas protected by sea walls) is eroding and 304 km coast is accreting. Thirty kilometer of the coast comes under high erosion category. Twenty one kilometer of coast recorded high rate of accretion.
