La plupart des travaux de chenalisation se traduisent par une simplification des écoulements (banalisation des faciès) et par conséquent des habitats aquatiques. La modification due à la chenalisation provoque généralement une réduction des vitesses et des profondeurs en étiage et une augmentation en crue. Les conditions deviennent alors critiques pour les biocénoses. En effet, cette homogénéisation des faciès se convertit quasi-directement en une simplification des biocénoses aquatiques, c’est-à-dire en une chute drastique de la biodiversité. 4, record 3, French, - homog%C3%A9n%C3%A9isation%20des%20faci%C3%A8s

The organic matter undergoing diagenesis moves out of the compacting clays under the influence of the expelled water and into more porous and permeable reservoir rocks, such as sandstones or porous carbonates. This initial movement is called primary migration, and although it certainly occurs, in part, shortly after burial, it may also continue over geologic time. 3, record 18, English, - primary%20migration

La migration primaire est le déplacement du pétrole qui aboutit à son expulsion hors de la roche mère vers une roche magasin ou vers un drain perméable.
