Analysis of subaerial and subaqueous datasets allows the evaluation of disposal strategies on the delta topset and on tailings accumulation. Disposal strategies influence the dynamics of the channels on the topset, thus in turn affecting the accumulation of tailings throughout the lake, as well as the shoreline advancement rate. Subaqueous erosional channels present on the bed of the Lake influence the depositional pattern of tailings as well as their granulometric distribution. These erosional channels are created by the shoreward migration of knickpoints. In some places, this migration can be documented over multiple surveys.
Finally, sequential analysis of the 1999, 2004, 2006, 2008 and 2011 surveys has allowed detailed documentation of the infilling of the Lake, including the migration of sediment depocenters, the mechanism of emplacement and the progressive infilling of a series of minibasins.
