A meandering river flows downstream and creates sweeping bends, known as meanders. These bends form due to the erosion of the riverbank on the outer curve and deposition of sediment on the inner curve, resulting in a sinuous path. Meandering rivers often occur in flat or gently sloping landscapes, where the water's velocity is relatively low. This dynamic process shapes the river's course over time, creating a distinctive and winding appearance.

The Missouri River experiences primarily lateral erosion, where the riverbanks are worn away as the water flows and meanders across its floodplain. This type of erosion contributes to the changing shape of the river channel and can lead to the formation of oxbow lakes. Additionally, some vertical erosion occurs, particularly during high flow events, as water scours the riverbed. Combined, these erosion processes shape the landscape and ecosystems along the river.
