Sumnerd; Excellent...brought back memories of my time at Michigan Tech. To talk about Gold (Au) in stream sediment, Nuggets are an anomaly being less than 1/2 of 1% of the gold found. Most is 1.2mm and smaller depending on the distance traveled from the source.

Yes, I don't talk about many of the very interesting details of meandering rivers. My goal with these videos is to provide a conceptual framework for understanding important processes. I also try to keep the video less that 4 minutes, and I really failed on this video even leaving out very important flow characteristics. Can I suggest you make a video with these details?

@universeiswise Many people don't know rivers, and there are many fantastic resources on rivers with lots of details. I've chosen to focus most of my videos on the most basic concepts. Prep school students and their teachers appreciate videos at this level, and some more advanced students appreciate a clear explanation of the most basic processes. I strongly encourage others to make videos that meet other needs. Rivers are fascinating, complex features of great importance to society!

You never failed I only watched the video because I had my A level exams the day after my original post so I was in the mood for more details because these exams need the more detailed answers but you video might be aimed at lower level student so you never failed and my exams are over now and meanders never turned up.

you never talked about pools and riffles within the river which causes the formation of meanders and you never mentioned helicoidal flow in the explanation of the cross section but still it was a good explanation of how meanders work.

Erosion removes sediment. Larger, heavier grains can be left behind if the flow is too slow to move them. Thus, gold nuggets, which are heavier than most grains, can be concentrated on an erosional surface. However, they are part of the sediment because they are actual grains. "Erosion" is a process rather than a physical object, so it can't contain something like nuggets. By the way, good luck finding some. Feel free to send one my way...

@Aidoplaydough "Billabong" is a much better term than "Oxbow Lake"! How many people know what an oxbow is? And "billabong" has a great sound to it. I think, though, that dry season lakes in channel meanders that flow during the wet season, but not the dry season, are also informally called billabongs. These are lakes only part of the year and often have sand deposits from wet-season flow - the ones I've seen in the Kimberley are mostly sandy.

It missed the fact that meanders begin underwater, at the bottom of the water in the silt, and the deposited silt builds up and eventually becomes the new curved banks., which are later "pushed" out and accentuated as described
