In this study, our efforts have highlighted on evaluation of POM capturing on sandbar which is characterized by vegetated area and fine sand deposition there. We investigated the deposition mechanisms of sediment and POM through a field observation and a laboratory experiment. After the basic deposition characteristics were extracted by the field observation, we observed the deposition mechanisms by the laboratory experiment. The conclusions of this study are summarized that ripples are formed by fine sediment that was deposited in riparian vegetation. And CPOM is captured by trough of ripples formed by wave action. 

The congrial (congrio) is another type of shrubland in which more or less dense colonies of Acosmium nitens (Vogel) Yakovlev occupy extensive depressions in the Orinoco floodplains of the states of GuMco and Apure. This same shrub is otherwise found occasionally in the riparian vegetation of many rivers and creeks of the Llanos drainage.
