a meander is a sharp turn in a river. also the meander would of been eroded to make a sharp curve :)
It would be the flood plain or meander belt.
serpentear -> to meander Serpenteo = I meander Serpenteando = meandering Serpenteas = You meander Serpentea = He/ She/ You (formal) meander(s) Serpenteamos = We meander Serpenteáis = You (plural) meander Serpentean= They/ you (plural, formal) meander
The side of a meander that it flows faster is in the clean water than in the dirty water
Beacuse inside the Meander, there is no current where on the other side there is beacuse the water is pushed onto it. It's how Ox-Bow lakes are formed.

erosion flooding seems more accurate.
Suppose the stream is turning left. The water would prefer to go straight on and so it hits the right bank. This effect cuts away the right bank and deepns the bed there. Now we have the two effects. The faster water tends to go to the deeper side and so the slower water is pushed aside to the shallow left where it slows down even more.
How is a meander different
How is a meander different
In the outside of the meander there is mostly erosion that is found because that is where the highest energy and velocity occurs. This energy and velocity causes the bank to undercut and collapse. On top of that the river bed becomes deeper as time passes.
