“…The rich sediment distribution in the PQ sector indicates that the sediments are transported Muttukadu and lower (0.5%) at Kovalam due to the effect of hydraulic on the sample population (Ergin et al 2007). In berm region, the percentage of heavy minerals was found to be low especially in Tiruvanmiyur (S.No.2 = 0.8%) and the maximum in Nainarkuppam (S.No.17 = 13.75%).…”

“…The heavy minerals are resistant to mechanical and chemical alteration processes; consequently, they are useful as natural tracers, so much for their hydrodynamic behaviour and their potential of preservation (Morton, 1985). The concentration and distribution of heavy minerals in LN sediments is mainly controlled by the rate and the source type of sediment supply, the hydraulic processes, as well as by the grain size and the specific weight (Ergin et al, 2007). Another factor controlling the distribution of the heavy mineral content is their mode of erosion, transport and sedimentation, due to their selective resistance to weathering and hydrodynamic processes (Frihy and Dewidar, 2003).…”

“…Terrigenous material makes up a considerable proportion of total sediment accumulation in the Southern Ocean, grain size and heavy mineral composition provide important signals of the sediment origin (Ehrmann & Polozek 1999, Diekmann 2007, Ergin et al . 2007, Hauptvogel & Passchier 2012). Grain size is sensitive to environmental changes and has long been used to identify types of depositional environments (Gao & Collins 2001).…”
