How do oxbow lakes form?
Rivers are dammed, and the water builds up, creating a lake.
Runoff pools in areas of low elevation, creating a temporary lake.
Rivers wear away banks until the bank is broken and the river flows straight.
Glaciers leave deep channels in the ground, which fill with water and become a lake.

Explanation:
When deposition finally seals off the cut-off from the river channel, an oxbow lake is formed. The oxbow lake usually is a U-shaped body of water that forms when a wide meander from the main stem of a river is cut off, creating a free-standing body of water.
