Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) study is essential for groundwater in coastal terrace at Tiruchendur. The famous Murugan Temple is located in the area and around 25,000 people who visit this temple use the SGD well water at NaaliKinaru (a small open well) as holy water and drink it. The rock and soil type are sandy clay, silt, beach sand, calcarenite, kankar, gneissic rock and charnockite in base rock. Megascopic identification method was used to identify the porous and permeable rocks such as calcarenite, sandstone and kankar to support to increase SGD flux. Grain size study was used to identify the paleo-coastal estuarine environment with sediment deposits in the terrace. The square array electrical resistivity method was used to study the subsurface geology and aquifer depth. The 2d ERT technique was used to identify the subsurface shallow perched aquifer of freshwater. The magnetotelluric survey method was used to scan the entire subsurface geological and tectonic uplift, coastal ridges, rock folded subsurface structural features of continental and oceanic tectonism. Darcy's law was used to calculate the SGD flux rate in the above study area. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
