Abstract:
The influence of wave, tide and fluvial processes on shorelines varies considerably in and between coastal systems; this can result in the development of architecturally complex, mixed-process systems. Of these, tide-dominated systems produce some of the most heterogeneous deposits. The arrangement of reservoir elements generated by wave and fluvial processes in such tide-dominated systems can be, to some degree, systematic and predictable. This research details a modern, tide-dominated, fluvial-influenced, wave-affected coastal system. It presents geometric attributes for reservoir elements that can be used to improve the construction of 3D reservoir models of these depositional environments. The Mitchell River is the largest fluvial system, discharging into the low accommodation setting of the Gulf of Carpentaria. Its Holocene delta extends to more than 500 km2. Eleven types of depositional elements (n = 3,100) were mapped across the delta plain: 286 km2 of tidal, 133 km2 of fluvial and 101 km2 of wave elements make up the delta surface. Fluvially and wave-formed reservoir elements form systematic arrangements across the system. More than 75% of wave elements are aligned inside 45° of the shoreline and these are generally crescentic (asymmetric) or linear in shape. Fluvial elements are aligned either perpendicular to the shoreline, or alongshore, because they are trapped behind wave-formed, shore parallel features. Separate wave and fluvial reservoir element datasets demonstrate convincing, though distinctly different, length-to-width relationships; wave-formed elements are much longer than fluvial-formed elements, relative to their widths. Despite pronounced heterogeneity in the distribution of these depositional elements across the delta surface, these relationships suggest their distribution is, to some degree, predictable. Analysis of the connectivity of adjacent sandbody elements suggests the largest connected sandbody is significant and extends to more than 90 km2.

Abstract:
This article provides a review of the study and geomorphology of Australia's fluvial systems by offering comment on the development, concerns and future of the subject. Trends in the history of fluvial landform studies in Australia are traced from the observations and comments of the early explorers and visiting scientists through to the emergence and growth of fluvial geomorphology as a study discipline. Subsequent development of the idea of a distinctive geomorphology of Australian fluvial systems that often contrast with Anglo-American observations is outlined and illustrated with particular reference to fluvial studies in south-east Australia. Key features of the Australian setting include low long-term denudation rates, the absence of extensive Quaternary glaciation and the predominance of low gradient fluvial systems over much of the continent. Some of the most important themes in contemporary Australian fluvial research are discussed and include long-term landscape evolution, thresholds and riverine response to secular trends in climate, Quaternary environmental change, arid-environment systems, bedrock channels and applied approaches to study. Consideration is also given to present deficiencies in research and to future priorities. Particular attention is focused on the need firstly to collect additional process data, secondly to shift the bias in research away from south-east Australia, and thirdly to develop links between fluvial process and alluvial stratigraphy/chronology. It is concluded that, given the variety of hydrogeomorphological environments in Australia and the diversity of approaches to study, ongoing research will provide further indications of the unusual nature of many of the continent's fluvial systems.

Abstract:
Fluvial sandstones constitute one of the major clastic petroleum reservoir types in many sedimentary basins around the world. This is especially true in the Tertiary basins of Southeast Asia, which display a wide range of fluvial channel reservoir types. This study is based on the analysis of high-resolution, shallow (seabed to ca. 500 m depth) 3D seismic data which provide exceptional imaging of the geometry, dimension and temporal and spatial distribution of fluvial channels. The Malay Basin comprises a thick (>8 km), rift to post-rift Oligo-Miocene to Pliocene basin-fill. The youngest (Miocene to Pliocene), post-rift succession is dominated by a thick (1-5 km), cyclic succession of coastal plain and coastal deposits, which accumulated in a humidtropical climatic setting. This study focuses on the Pleistocene to Recent (ca. 500 m thick) succession, which comprises a range of seismic facies, mainly reflecting changes in fluvial channel style and gross stratigraphic architecture. The succession has been divided into four seismic units (Unit 1-4), bounded by basin-wide stratal surfaces. Units 3 and 4 have been further divided into two sub-units. Two types of boundaries have been identified: 1) a boundary that is defined by a regionally-extensive erosion surface at the base of a prominent incised valley (e.g. Horizons C.1 and D.1); 2) a sequence boundary that is defined by more weakly-incised, straight and low-sinuosity channels which is interpreted as lowstand alluvial bypass channel systems (e.g. Horizons A, B, C, and D). Each unit displays a predictable vertical change of the channel pattern and scale, with wide low-sinuosity channels at the base passing gradationally upwards into narrow high-sinuosity channels at the top. The wide variation in channel style and size is interpreted to be controlled mainly by the sea-level fluctuations on the widely flat and tectonically-quiescent Sundaland Platform.

Abstract:
The geomorphology and sedimentology of terminal fluvial systems. Fluvial systems operating within drylands commonly experience downstream discharge reduction due to infiltration, evaporation and limited tributary inputs. Sediment bodies developed within the distal zones of rivers that do not drain into the sea or a lake (terminal fluvial systems) are currently represented by the terminal fan facies model. This model summarises the development of a distally thinning and fining sedimentary wedge from a coeval network of low sinuosity distributary channels as induced by the sub aerial termination ofchannelised flow under a dryland climate regime.. Extensive review of sediment fan bodies located within modern drylands highlights pronounced disequilibrium between planform character and present ephemeral flow conditions. Out of eighty documented fluvial systems no convincing examples fit the terminal fan model, including two commonly cited analogues used to support this model. In order to fully evaluate the terminal fan concept and redress the current imbalance in modern analogue studies, field work was undertaken to characterise sub aerial fluvial system termination within a single physiographic province - the Basin and Range rift complex of the southwestern U.S.A. Documentation of the potential range in fluvial style and character within this modern dryland environment is provided by the detailed study of seven terminal fluvial systems. Basin and Range terminal fluvial systems demonstrate strong geomorphic form inheritance. Fan landforms observed within medial and distal reaches of these systems predominantly represent relic Late Pleistocene highstand delta bodies into which the modern system is inset. Active terminal reaches operate within basin centre playa environments where shallo~ gradients induce frequent avulsion and the generation of composite lowstand fan bodies located downstream of lateral system confinement. These terminal features record non-coeval channel activity and the dominance of sinuous channel forms. Morphometric trends distinguish a general downstream reduction in channel scale characterised by the development of progressively narrower and shallower channel forms. Channelised flow is maintained within proximal and medial reaches but does not dominate distal reaches where sheetflow discharge is readily attained. Concomitant reductions in channel capacity and competence control the volume and calibre of fluvial material supplied to basinal environments. Progressive downstream thinning is associated with selective deposition and general basinwards sediment fining and sorting. Terminal reaches transport negligible bedload material and display a comparable depositional record to that generated by background playa sedimentation. Identified similarities with the terminal fan model include downstream loss of channel definition, sediment thinning, fining and improved sorting. Conversely, coeval distributive flow is not observed, constituent channels record moderate to high sinuosity and negligible fluvial material reaches basin centre locations. Basin and Range systems are principally responding to streampower reduction controlled primarily by gradient and enhanced by discharge attenuation. Sub aerial termination dominates due to the absence of basin centre lacustrine bodies; a condition forced by limited discharge supply from catchment reaches, compounded by transmission losses and maintained by excessive evaporation from extensive, low elevation flat playa surfaces. In conclusion, fluvial fan landforms generated exclusively from discharge attenuation do not characterise modern dryland environments. Selection of modern analogue systems for use in the interpretation and prediction of ancient fluvial successions must acknowledge the influence of high frequency and high magnitude climate fluctuations upon modern fluvial geomorphology. Key to this is an appreciation of modern processform disequilibrium and the identification of inherited planform characteristics.

Abstract:
Tropical wetlands such as the Pantanal help regulate global biogeochemical cycles, but climate change is modifying these environments. Controls on environmental changes can potentially be assessed from ancient, well-dated lacustrine sedimentary records. An integrated field and laboratory approach was undertaken to study the limnogeology of Lake Uberaba in the northern Pantanal, and test whether the lake has preserved a reliable record of environmental change in its strata. This study was designed to understand how the basin accumulates sediment and to assess its sensitivity to hydroclimatic variability. The data showed that modern Lake Uberaba is a highly dynamic, freshwater fluvial-lacustrine basin. Modern lake floor sediments are largely siliciclastic silts, with limited organic matter content and abundant sponge spicules. This sedimentary composition reflects the lake’s open hydrology and well-mixed water column. Limited data from sediment cores indicates that Lake Uberaba may have formed ~1760 CE, following an abrupt transgression over an oxidized floodplain depositional environment. The stratal contact between lacustrine and floodplain deposits suggests the presence of an erosional unconformity, the timing and duration of which remains unknown. The environmental change favoring lake formation appears to be linked to increased effective precipitation provided by the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) in the northern Pantanal.

Abstract:
This dissertation investigates the possible role of hydrothermally driven groundwater outflow in the formation of fluvial valleys on Mars. Although these landforms have often been cited as evidence for a past wanner climate and denser atmosphere, recent theoretical modeling precludes such climatic conditions on early Mars when most fluvial valleys formed. Because fluvial valleys continued to form throughout Mars' geological history and the most earth-like stream valleys on Mars formed well after the decline of the early putative earth-like climate, it may be unnecessary to invoke drastically different climatic conditions for the formation of the earliest stream valleys. The morphology of most Martian fluvial valleys indicates formation by ground-water sapping which is consistent with a subsurface origin. Additionally, many Martian fluvial valleys formed on volcanoes, impact craters, near fractures, or adjacent to terrains interpreted as igneous intrusions; all are possible locales of vigorous, geologically long-lived hydrothermal circulation. Comparison of Martian valley morphology to similar features on Earth constrains valley genesis scenarios. Volumes of measured Martian fluvial valleys range from 10¹⁰ to 10¹³ m³. Based on terrestrial analogs, total water volumes required to erode these valleys range from -10¹⁰ to 10¹⁵ m³. The clustered distribution of Martian valleys within a given terrain type, the sapping dominated morphology, and the general lack of associated runoff valleys all indicate the importance of localized ground-water outflow in the formation of these fluvial systems. An analytic model of a conductively cooling cylindrical intrusion is coupled with the U.S. Geological Survey's numerical ground-water computer code SUTRA to evaluate the magnitude of ground-water outflow expected from magmatically-driven hydrothermal systems on Mars. Results indicate that magmatic intrusions of several 10² km³ or larger can provide sufficient ground-water outflow over periods (several 10⁵ years) required to form Martian fluvial Valleys. Therefore, a vastly different climate on early Mars may not be necessary to explain the formation of the observed Valleys. Martian hydrothermal systems would have also produced long-lived sources of near-surface water; these localized regions may have provided oases for any microbial life that may have evolved on the planet.

Abstract:
This work have quantitatively determine the catchment variables controlling the sinuosity transition of non-valley constrained DFS channels in Alaska, Himalaya and the Andes. Results from the characterisation of channel sinuosity were used through regression analyses to determine the catchment and channel bed parameters controlling reach sinuosity trend and transition of fluvial channel planforms in order to infer a control on the heterogeneity of DFS in the rock record. The catchment approach used was necessary because the studied fluvial systems are associated with DFS (which are regarded as larger forms of alluvial fans) and catchment based approach have been used to investigate controls on alluvial fan morphology. In addition, catchment based investigations are rare in the analyses of the discriminant functions that are considered as controlling factors on channel sinuosity and planform employed previously in the tributary systems. Two distinct channel types were found through the characterisation of 553 reaches of fluvial channels in 3 different modern continental sedimentary basins; channels with no transition in sinuosity/planform (group 1), and channels with transition in sinuosity/planform (group 2) Among the channel bed and catchment quantitative variables investigated in this work, catchment area is the only parameter that shows a general relationship with the channel distance from the apex to the transition point in channel sinuosity through the overall regression results. The result shows that the bigger the catchment area the longer the transition point which is related to a higher water and sediment discharge. Thus, the point at which the channel sinuosity transition will occur can be predicted from the catchment area through the regression equation [y=0.0017x + 28] of the overall linear regression line, where x is the catchment area and y is the channel distance from the apex to the point of transition in channel sinuosity. As the studied channels are associated with DFS, this relation also reflects the prediction of the transition point in the DFS fluvial styles in the rock record. Overall regression analysis results show statistically poor results for the relationship between catchment elevation, catchment slope, channel bed elevation, channel bed slope and either the channel sinuosity or the sinuosity transition. However, in all the three study areas, the majority of the datasets show a trend with the catchment area/sinuosity transition relationship. Additionally, the study area with mainly the biggest catchments (longer channel sinuosity transition) is associated with the highest catchment slope, lowest channel bed elevation and more anabranching channels. Also, the study area with mainly the smallest catchments (shorter channel sinuosity transition) is associated with lower catchment slope, higher channel bed elevation and fewer anabranching channels. This suggests that the higher water and sediment discharge may be related to the steeper slopes and the anabranching channels may reflect the lower channel bed elevation. However, deviations obeserved in the overall regression result in the three study areas are attributed to the differences in the climatic, geologic and tectonic factors in the 3 settings. Although, the differences in these study areas have been shown, nevertheless the interpretations cannot be substantiated in this work with the available data. Thus, there is need for further research to prove any conclusive relationship between these factors and hence remains an issue of debate. In conclusion, this work shows that catchment area is an important controlling parameter on the transition in channel sinuosity of non-valley constrained DFS channels and consequently reflects a a control on the transition in spatial variations of the associated DFS in the rock record.

Abstract:
Abstract Siliciclastic sediments represent important lithological unit of the Red Sea coastal plain. Their subsurface equivalents are important targets of groundwater aquifer and hydrocarbon reservoirs in the region. The lithofacies of the modern fluvial deltaic system has several distinct geomorphic units and sub-environments such as alluvial, fluvial, delta plain, aeolian, intertidal, coastal sabkha and eustuarine sediments. This study intends to characterize the lithofacies and the depositional environments and to produce an integrated facies model for this modern fluvial-deltaic system. The study might provide a valuable modern analog to several important subsurface Neogene formations that act as important hydrocarbon reservoirs and groundwater aquifers. The study integrates information and data obtained from landsats, maps and detailed field observation and measurements of facies analysis of the fluvial and deltaic along traveses from the Arabian Shield to the Red Sea coast. The lithofacies sediment analysis revealed four main lithofacies associations namely lithofacies A,B,C ad D. Lithoacies Associations A, which represents the oldest unit is dominated by coarse gravel with minor sands facies. While the lithofacies B is dominated byfine gravel and sand lithofacies, occasionally pebbly, vary from horizontal, planar to massive sands with minor laminated to massive silts and mud facies. The lithofacies in A and B show lateral proximal to distal variation as well as characteristic vertical stacking patterns. The Facies Association A and B indicates a change in fluvial depositional styles from gravelly alluvial fans to gravelly sandy fluvial systems. The lithofacies association C represents the recent fluvial system which consists of minor gravel lag deposits associated maily with various sand lithofacies of planner, horizontal and massive sand associated with massive and limainted sand and mud lithofacies. The lithofacies Association D is dominated with Barchan sand dunes local interfigger with muddy iinterdunes and sand sheets. Lithofacies D occupies rather more distal geomporphic position of the fluvial deltaic system that is adjace to coastal sabkha. The lithofacies associations described here document the evolution and development of the coastal plain sediments through space and time under various autocyclic and allocyclic controls. This included the tectonics and structural development associated with the Red Sea rifting and opening since the Oligocene – Miocene time. Others controls include the evolution of the Arabian shield (provenance) and the coastal plain through space and time as controlled by tectonics, sediment supply, climate and locally by autocyclic environmental This study might be beneficial for understanding the controls and stratigraphic evolution of the Red Sea region and will be of great value for reservoir and aquifer characterization, development and management. This modern analog model can also help in providing geological baseline information that would be beneficial for understanding similar ancient fluvial deltaic sediments. The study might provide guides and leads to understand the subsurface facies, stratigraphic architecture and heterogeneity of any potential groundwater aquifers and hydrocarbon reservoirs.

Abstract:
The purpose of this technical note is to underline the growing need for Engineering With Nature® (EWN) guidance for inland fluvial systems. In comparison to the EWN coastal initiatives, guidance, and technical publications, emphasis on inland fluvial systems has been primarily focused on larger river systems, rather than smaller and intermediate-sized tributary systems. As EWN continues to expand its offerings and support inland systems, there is a strong need to fill data gaps and offer case study examples from underrepresented issues across different hydro-physiographic regions and ecosystems. Accordingly, this technical note offers background on the growing need for riverine EWN guidance as well recommendations moving forward to help address those needs.
