| Abstract | Chumphon coastal zone in southern Thailand owns its very long coastline and the coastal area preserves spectacular geomorphological landforms especially beach ridge plains. The old set of beach ridge plain was recognized clearly from satellite images in which it is located almost 10 km far away inland from the present shoreline. This geographic setting of beach ridge plain can be inferred the rising and falling of sea-level in the past. Not only series of beach ridges we recognized, the old lagoon, old tidal flat, and old intertidal flat were also seen farther inland. They show the progradation seaward direction. |
