Abstract
The present study emphasizes on the impact of cyclone on the coastal enviro nment of Orissa, using the IRS-P4 (OCM) satellite data. The study includes the analysis of IRS-P4 (OCM) data to generate chlorophyll, suspended sedime nt concentration (SSC) images for the coastal water and normalized differen ce vegetation index (NDVI) images for coastal vegetation in the pre and pos t-cyclonic stages. The effect on mangroves and change in distribution patte rn of water constituents like chlorophyll and suspended sediments are broug ht out.
