A river with little power to erode means the river doesn't have enough force to over power the amount of time it takes for dirt gravel and other particles to build up. An example of this would be The San Ramon River. Creeks are often considered "weak" rivers

The speed of the river's flow, in the lower reaches, is usually too slow to cause much erosion, except when in flood.

What is the cause of meander?

A river has three sections, upper, middle and lower. Meander bends occur in the middle section when the river is not as high up and has a shallower slope (gradient) so it has more power to erode sideways. It also has a greater volume, as more tributaries have joined, so less water is touching the banks of the river thus there is less friction acting on it and it has more power. A meander starts at the deeper side of the river where it flows faster and has more power to erode sideways. i don't have time to finish this go to a siter for more information.
