Long term shoreline oscillation and changes of Cauvery delta coastline inferred from satellite imageries [1]

Coastal zone is highly volatile ecosystem which is always in adjustments. Loss of shore line will cause severe impact on human life and as well as their properties. Remote sensing is a reliable technique to study the historical shoreline changes.
