Drainage patterns in an appalachian fold mountain belt: flinders ranges, south Australia

La red de drenaje desarrollada en las Flinders Ranges (Australia) es en su mayor parte concordante con la estructura geologica subyacente. No obstante, incluye importantes tramos fluviales que atraviesan la estructura geologica subyacente dando lugar a drenajes transversals anomalos. Estas zonas anomalas pueden ser plausiblemente explicadas en cada caso por varios procesos tales como, capturas por erosion remontante, procesos de superposicion de canales o valles fluviales debido a la profunda erosion de los mismos o por superimposicion (underprinting). La posibilidad de un redireccionamiento fluvial ha de ser entendido en relacion del significado de las diferentes caracteristicas de las cuencas de drenaje ante los procesos de captura. Los mecanismos de superimposicion del drenaje indican que algunos de los drenajes transversos analizados tengan gran antiguedad. No obstante, el origen de muchos elementos transversals se todavia ambiguo y otros procesos pueden haber jugado un papel relevante en su formacion.
