| Abstract: | Photogeomorphic studies of the Andaman coast reveal several landforms suggestive of coastal emergence and submergence in the recent past. Elevated reefel terrace, planation surfaces and escarpments indicate that the west coast is rising associated with a corresponding tilt of the islands in general to the east. Offshore structures in the west coast shelf and a few exposed structures in the main land are recommended for future exploration. |
