What landforms and features are associated with the middle course of a river? LO: To investigate how meanders and ox-bow lakes.

RIVERS. A meander is a turning or winding of a stream Incised meanders of Dolores River, Colorado.

What is the long river profile? The gradient is less steep than in the upper course. The valley gets wider and flatter. Erosion is more lateral (or.

MEANDER Most erosion normally occurs on the outside bend of a meander. This is because the velocity (speed) of the river is faster. As well as the water.

Is the meander in Wanstead Park typical? Writing up our results Is the meander in Wanstead Park typical?

Current Test m/s = average time/10 Where? Test 1 Test 2 Test 3 Average Speed (m/s) Inside Middle Outside

Does the meander we surveyed follow this pattern? The theory The inside of a meander is more shallow and the current is slower. The outside is deeper and the current is quicker. Does the meander we surveyed follow this pattern?

How to write the investigation up Set the scene. When did we go? Where were we? Describe it (wide/managed/natural)? What was the weather like on the day/days before? How did you carry out the surveys? Tackle each part of the theory separately i. Is the river more / less shallow on the inside of the bend? ii. Is the current faster or slower on the inside of the bend? Does the river have a river beach and river cliff? Use data / graphs to add detail to your description Prove that you are right!
