Moving water affects the land in many ways. As a river bends, inertia in the water pushes into the outside bank, eroding it away. As this happens, on the inside bank sand is deposited and starts creating sort of a spit inside the river.

Trees and other vegetation thrive along the coast of rivers, known as buffer zones. This stops surrounding land, like urban or farmland, from affecting the river.
