On the other hand, not all backswamp areas are necessarily filled directly by flow over the tops of the natural levees. Two major mechanisms may...

Mechanisms of formation of each levee type vary; most levees are hybrids of two or more of the four types. We also discuss the prospects of deducing lava rheology from morphology and the application of this technique to surfaces of other planets.

The formation of new natural levees is favoured by the occurrence of meander cutoffs, causing a cyclic succession of landforms along the river.
