Abstract
Kallayi river originates from Kunnamangalam as a small stream and flowsdown 30 km through Kunnathupalam, Mankavu and Kallayi towns and ends in
the Arabian Sea (Fig. 1). Perennial in nature, it is connected to Beypore river
by a channel at Mankavu. Considerable amount of coconut husks are deposited
in this river by the coir cottage-industry units for retting. These husks settle
onto the bottom and due to the decay of these, a black silt is formed on the
substratum mixed with sand
