What are Curves in canyons formed by a down cutting stream are?
Curves in canyons formed by a downcutting stream are known as meanders. These curves develop as the stream erodes the outer banks of the channel, creating a sinuous path as it flows over time. The process is influenced by factors such as water velocity, sediment load, and the geology of the canyon walls. As the stream continues to cut down and erode, meanders can become more pronounced, leading to the characteristic shapes seen in many canyon landscapes.
