A levee is a bank of earth that keeps out water by providing a barrier to prevent flooding. It is commonly used along rivers and coastlines to protect communities and land areas from water intrusion.
The land beside a river is called a riverbank. It is the area along the edge of the river where the water meets the land.
A meander is primarily created by erosion along the outer bank of a river bend and deposition along the inner bank. The flow of the water in a river directs erosional forces towards the outer bank, causing it to erode and form a bend in the course of the river.
A levee is a bank of earth that confines water by preventing flooding from rivers or ocean surges. It is typically built along the edges of bodies of water to protect lands from being submerged.
Stream bank cultivation involves planting vegetation or crops along the banks of a stream or river to help stabilize the soil, prevent erosion, and improve water quality. This practice also creates habitat for wildlife and can help reduce nutrient runoff into the water.
