    Abstract

    Tuticorin coastal water is under the threat of pollution from various anthropogenic activities. Industrial discharge, untreated sewage effluents and wastes from processing and manufacturing units are the major source of pollution along Tuticorin coast. Most of the industries are letting their effluents in monsoon season in bulk quantities for the rapid mixing and dilution with rain water. Such effluent discharges very often dragged the public attention due to the extent of damages caused to the coastal ecosystem.
