Which mechanism sustains high sinuosity in meandering streams within humid continental regions?

💡 Explanation

When streams breach banks, flow is concentrated along the outside and further accelerates existing erosion due to levee formation that confines subsequent floods. Therefore, levee formation sustains sinuosity rather than frost wedging, glacial erosion, or desertification which alter sediment supply, temperature conditions, or slope.
