摘要:Prelude: The major river deltas are sinking, shrinking which accommodate ≈40% of global population. The Mahanadi tri-delta along the east coast of India consists of three river deltas i.e. the Mahanadi, the Bramhani and the Baitarani. The tri-delta encompasses many ecological hubs and the 2nd largest lagoon of Asia, the Chilika Lagoon lies in the southern corner of the delta. Presently the Mahanadi tri-delta and its coastal environments are under threat due to coastal vulnerability, population growth, urbanization and industrialization but the expansion of the delta towards south is observed.
