Erosion occurs on the outside curve of meanders. Why is this?
Answer:
max velocity of the stream goes towards the outside of the bend causing an erosion of the bank. (more specifically the outer bank)
Explanation:
Meanders shift their position by eroding downstream and sideways. The stream's highest velocity changes to the outside of the curve, eroding the outer bank and resulting in the sideways flow.
What occurs when a meander makes an outside bend?The river bank outside of the bend, where water flow has the maximum energy due to less friction, is eroded and undercut by the force of the stream. River cliffs will result from this. Material is deposited inside the bend where the water flow is slower and there is more friction. This will create a slope for sliding off.
A meandering stream moves laterally due to deposition on the inside and erosion of silt on the outside of the meander (which is caused by friction work) (helicoidal flow, deceleration, channel lag, point bar sequence, fining upwards).

Pirates are those who engage in piracy, and pirate ships are those utilized for piracy.
Pirate activity off the coast of Somalia takes place in the Somali Sea, Guardafui Channel, the Gulf of Aden, and other nearby locations as well as in Somali territorial seas. This activity has a long and problematic history, with views from various populations.
According to the International Maritime Bureau, an increase in attacks off the coast of Somalia caused worldwide piracy to reach an all-time high in the first quarter of 2011.

Why is there a water shortage if two-thirds of the earth is covered my water.
Answer:
Water shortages are caused by climate change, such as altered weather patterns including droughts or floods, increased pollution, and increased human demand and overuse of water. A water crisis is a situation where the available potable, unpolluted water within a region is less than that region's demand.
Explanation:
Some places may not have access to water either. For example Nigeria don't have access to drinking water or a sanitation system for the water that is their water shortage crisis. A place may have also had a river or stream that dried up, so it's not so much of the whole world has a shortage it's more of that one or more places seperate have a water shortage.
