| Description |
Tamil Nadu (India), in particular Nagapattinam, experienced major wrath of recent Tsunami. In view of this, it is of paramount importance to carry out geophysical studies over coastal and shelf regions to analyze any tectonic and geomorphic changes leading to demarcation of new lineament patterns of Tamil Nadu margin. This can be carried out in two stages. (1) Bathymetry, shallow seismic, magnetic and gravity studies between 10 degrees N and 12 degrees 30 minutes N and 80 degrees and 82 degrees E in order to compare the earlier results (pre tsunami) to note deviations in lineament pattern (2) Geophysical studies over coastal regions of Tamil Nadu for correlating with offshore results for better understanding of land-ocean tectonics.
