Which process accelerates the lateral migration of a river's meander across an alluvial plain landscape?

💡 Explanation

When alternating flows occur along a meander bend, differential pressure occurs because increased force amplifies erosion and deposition, steering the river. Therefore bank erosion paired with deposition on the inside curve causes continued migration, rather than sediment reduction, increased vegetation or reduced sinuosity which stablize in place the meander.
