A 'bar' in a river refers to an accumulation of loose sand or shingle deposited out of the river where the river flow slackens for some reason.
During the year the shape of the bed of a large river alters as the flow of water in the river changes with the seasons and this causes the river to pick up and drop sediment from its bed and this has the effect of causing the mounds of sand to move. This movement of a bar of sand with time is called 'migrating'.

How are mid-channel-bars formed?
Mid-channel bars are formed through the deposition of sediment in river channels, typically where the flow velocity decreases, such as in the middle of a river bend. As water flows around curves, it carries sediment and, when the flow slows down, deposits this material, creating elevated bars. Over time, these bars can grow and stabilize with vegetation, further influencing the river's flow and sediment dynamics. Their formation is influenced by factors like river discharge, sediment supply, and channel morphology.
