How is an lake formed?
it is formed when there is a bend in a river and is cut off from the main channel by the force of erosion..
What type of erosion accours on the outside bend of a river?
bender
How does erosion happen at river bends?
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.
Is the inside bend of a meander called a river cliff?
The river cliff is the outside of a meander in a river. This is due to erosion from fast flowing water. Deposition occurs on the inside and the inside bend is called the SLIP-OFF SLOPE
Where does erosion and deposition take place in a river bend?
It's important to note that the balance between erosion and deposition in a river bend can change over time due to factors such as changes in water flow, sediment supply, and human activities. River bends are dynamic environments, and erosion and deposition processes are ongoing, shaping the landscape and the course of the river.
Where does a stream get eroded the most?
A stream will be tend to be eroded most where the water current is the swiftest and the surrounding ground the softest. Materials carried by the water will also affect erosion. Such materials include ice, sand, and pebbles The current is swifter on the outside of a river bend. On the inside of a river bend the current may slow and erosion materials may be left in the river bed.
What is a meander bend?
A meander is a bend in a river which will eventually erode to form an ox-bow lake which is a thing in a river! A meander is formed around a ox-bow lake. Your Welcome!! ;)
Do river turn wider when it goes to the downstream?
Yes it does, one of the reasons is erosion. Hydraulic action and corrosion erode the bends of the river making the outside bend wider. :P
When was If The River Can Bend created?

When was By the Bend of the River created?
By the Bend of the River was created in 1927.
