What is the outside of a river bend called?
Because the inside of the meander has deposited rocks and rubble building it up and making the water shallower whereas the outside of ther meander is being eroded by fast moving water.
What is the inside edge of a meander called?
The inside edge of a meander is called the "point bar." This area is where sediment accumulates due to the slower water flow on the inside of the curve, leading to the formation of a sandy or gravelly bank. Over time, point bars can grow larger as more sediment is deposited, altering the shape of the river over time.
