Are ox-bow lake formed by erosion or deposition?
Ox-bow lakes are primarily formed by erosion and deposition processes. As a river meanders, erosion occurs on the outer bends, while sediment is deposited on the inner bends. Over time, these processes can cause the river to cut off a meander, creating a crescent-shaped ox-bow lake. Thus, both erosion and deposition play critical roles in the formation of ox-bow lakes.
