Alluvial Fans:Â
 Tendency of water to flow over soft gradients to pass along the shores.
 Incorporated environment of alluvial deposits forms banks with multiple defects that can be used by water for piping.
Coriolis energy works in liquids that divert them as if diverting air.
 The concave bank is known as the Cut-off bank which appears to be steep.
 Convex banks have a long and gentle profile.
 Meanders grow into deeper traps. However, they may be damaged due to erosion in dynamic areas and could be left as ox-bow pools.
