The aim of the study was to determine the effects of physicochemical properties of sediment samples on the heavy metal, magnetic susceptibility, and natural radioactivity concentration. Spectroscopic techniques like energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence, dual-frequency susceptibility meter, and gamma ray spectrometry measurements are commonly employed for the determination of heavy metals, magnetic particle, and radioactivity concentration in sediment sample collected from Pulicat Lake to Vadanemmeli, of Chennai Coast, Tamilnadu. The relations between the physical and chemical properties and studied parameters of sediment samples were mainly clarified with Pearson correlation, factor, and cluster analysis. Silt content was the most effective parameter on the studied parameter. The results are discussed and the conclusion is drawn.
