Scale-invariant topography and porosity variations in fluvial sedimentary basins
We consider a model of • floodplain evolving with channel •vulsion, deposition, •nd erosion. Avulsion is modeled as • r•ndom process in sp•ce and time. Sediment ransport is modeled by the diffusion equation (Culling's model). The power spectrum of v•ri•tions in the topographic profiles predicted by the model S(k) is proportional to k -2 (where k is the w•venumber). This is the Brown noise often...
متن کاملA New Method for Predicting Well Pattern Connectivity in a Continental Fluvial-delta Reservoir
The features of bad flow unit continuity and multiple layers emphesize the importance of a well pattern design for the development of a fluvial-delta reservoir. It is proposed a method to predict well pattern connectivity (WPC) based on the exploration and evaluation of wells. Moreover, the method helps evaluate the risk of well placement. This study initially establishes the parameters for cha...
متن کاملControls on the degree of fluvial incision of continental shelves
During sea-level low stands continental shelves were dissected by a network of channels somewhat resembling today’s coastal plain streams. The network was subsequently buried or erased by marine processes during sea-level transgression, so that only some tracts are still conserved in the geological record. Herein we use a numerical model to study the effect of base level change by sea-level fal...
متن کاملThe Response of Fluvial Systems to Large Flood Events
In the summer of 2001, an intense thunderstorm in southeastern Caspian Sea triggered a catastrophic flood in the Madarsoo basin . Use of methods including high-resolution aerial photographs and satellite images interpretation, multi-date mapping, hydraulic calculations and field observations made possible the documentation of the geomorphic impacts on the Madarsoo River and its tributaries. Geo...
متن کاملModeling fluvial erosion on regional to continental scales
The fluvial system is a major concern in modeling landform evolution in response to tectonic deformation. Three stream bed types (bedrock, coarse-bed alluvial, and fine-bed alluvial) differ in factors controlling their occurrence and evolution and in appropriate modeling approaches. Spatial and temporal transitions among bed types occur in response to changes in sediment characteristics and tec...
