This current research aims to perceive the depositional energy environment of Jagatsinghpur coastal area sediments
with the outcome of textural aspects of particle size dissemination and Magnetic Susceptibility (MS). In the study,
36 sediment samples were recovered from 12 locations, with 3 points such as Low Tide (LT), High Tide (HT), and
Berm (BM), at every 5 km interval. To observe outcomes from different parameters such as Mean (MQ), Standard
Deviation (SD), Skewness (SK) and Kurtosis (KU), bivariate plots, and MS methods were adopted. The MQ and SD
of LT, HT, and BM infer medium to fine sand with a moderately to well-sorted nature, while the SK and KU of LT,
HT, and BM infer extremely coarse skewed to fine skewed with platykurtic to extreme leptokurtic nature. Textural
parameters show the southern part of the study area experienced a low energy condition. The.. View More»
