Point Bar Sedimentation

Point Bar Sedimentation is a fluvial depositional process in which lateral accretion of sediment occurs along the inner bend of a meandering river channel due to reduced flow velocity and centrifugal redistribution of bedload, forming a characteristic asymmetric, fining-upward sedimentary sequence.
