dc.description.abstractPresent study is the applicability of rock magnetic techniques, coupled with geochemical (SiO<sub>2</sub>, Al<sub>2</sub> O<sub>3</sub> , Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, CaO, MgO, K<sub>2</sub>O, P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>, and MnO) and texture size measurements, as a proxy tool to identify tsunami induced deposits in the core sediments from the Chennai coast, India Down core profiles of mass specific magnetic susceptibility (x variable), x variable ARM and SIRM are similar in all sediment cores, and reflect changes in the detrital component mineralogy which is largely influenced by the tsunami event To identify t he connection between the tsunami deposit and different sedimentologic units present in the study area, textural, geochemical and rock magnetic data were processed by multivariate statistical analyses.
