Original Note:
Rivers curve due to erosion and sedimentation, not primarily the Earth's rotation. Natural topography and water dynamics shape their winding paths. While the Earth's rotation affects large-scale atmospheric circulation, it's not the main factor in river meandering. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/251529576_Flow_structure_and_channel_morphology_at_a_natural_confluent_meander_bend
