🧪 River Meander Evolution

This simulation demonstrates the process of river meander formation, a key aspect of fluvial geomorphology. It explores how erosion and deposition along a channel's banks lead to the characteristic bends observed in rivers over time, illustrating principles of fluid dynamics and landscape evolution.
