Seawater samples were collected from four different sampling points in Thoothukudi coastal to study the physico-chemical characteristics. The physical and chemical parameters such as temperature, pH, salinity, nitrite, ammonia, silicates, dissolved oxygen and inorganic phosphate were studied using various analytical techniques. The studies reveal that the physical and chemical composition of all the samples collected from the sites mainly depends on seasonal variations and discharge from domestic and industries.
