Middle Course Features - Meanders and Oxbow Lakes

This link (http://www.school-portal.co.uk/GroupDownloadFile.asp?file=21606) has an excellent explanation of how meanders and oxbow lakes are formed through erosion and deposition in the middle course of a river. Watch it and then go to the link for the BBC bitesize website which gives all of the detail you need about meander formation. http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/geography/riverswater/riverfeaturesrev3.shtml
