| Abstract: | Quaternary stratigraphy of the Kerala coast and
the genetic aspects of the sediments are discussed.
The age of limeshells, and peaty sediments determined
by radio carbon dating have been used for reconstruction
of sea level changes. Evolution of red sands occurring
in some parts of the coastal tract of Kerala is also
discussed, based on textural parameters and quartz
grain morphology. |
