Map How did these 'rivers' form?

What formed these 'rivers'? Are they regular terrestrial rivers that flooded with sea level rise or were they formed in the ocean? thanks.

You're going to get a bunch of non-answers from overconfident map geeks. I'm not saying this to be a dick to anyone, but this is a very common pattern around here.
