Description :
The comparison between the geomorphological features of southern Kerala and southern Tamilnadu helps to interpret the major phases of the geomorphogenesis of southern India. The climatic contrast between the windward and the leeward sides of the subcontinent combined with pedologic and chronostratigraphic studies shows the conditions by which peneplains are formed.
