What's the difference between fluvial and riverine?
Fluvial
Definition:
(a.) Belonging to rivers; growing or living in streams or ponds; as, a fluvial plant.
Example Sentences:

(7) • Fluvial flooding from rivers bursting their banks or overflowing • Groundwater flooding happens when the earth is saturated and can hold no more water • Flash flooding is usually at its worst when drainage systems in urban areas are overwhelmed by sudden heavy rainfall, often worsened by the concreting over of large areas of soil and gardens that would otherwise have helped to absorb the water As the government’s Centre for Ecology and Hydrology notes , “the full gamut of flood manifestations – tidal, pluvial (flash), fluvial and groundwater – has been experienced over the last eight weeks.” Who’s at risk of flooding?
(8) During its fluvial life, the ovarian follicular epithelium of Lampetra fluviatilis undergoes polarity formation--in the animal hemisphere the follicular epithelium is flattened, in the vegetative--it undergoes a secretory specialization: as the secrete is accumulating, the follicular cells increase in volume and height, acquiring a cubical form.
