The channel lengthens and migrates towrad the cutbank.
Erosion can be higher at a cutbankbecause of an often increased volume of water and higher speed at a cutbank, especially if the curve is at a narrower point in the river. This produces greater friction right at that point, and can result in a higher level of sediment being carried away by the force of the moving water.
As the river erodes farther into the cutbank (the outside of the bend) the bend migrates in the direction of erosion. This migration leaves behind point bar deposits on the inside of the bend, where velocities are low enough to allow deposition of point bar sediments.
