Oxbow Lake Formation
An Oxbow Lake is a development of a meander, thanks to erosion and deposition. The neck/bend of the meander grows narrower and narrower and eventually the river just takes a shortcut of straight on ahead instead of going around the neck/bend. Soon the loop of the meander is sealed off altogether and it turns into an oxbow lake. In time the lake will get covered with weeds, fill with soil and will disappear.
If you doing this for work/school I suggest you use diagrams/pictures to show each stage.
