What are the tributaries?

Tributors are branches of the river, starting high in the basin and slowly walking down to connect to other tributaries, and finally in the mainstream that drains to the sea. The tributaries come in a wide range of shapes and sizes and the study of tributaries is of interest to some biologists because it is possible to use tributaries to monitor pollution and various living organisms such as invasive exoticism back to their source. On the map you can see tributaries; Take a look at the characteristic opening of the river at sea and then follow it inland. All the small branches that appear are tributaries.

The word "inflow" comes from the same root as "tribute". Both words come from the Latin Tribure when it means "assign or distribute". In a sense, tributaries bring tribute to the river basin to the river and mountains, the creation of the basin. The basin is also sometimes called the "drainage basin". A network of tributaries that combine to form a river is associated with numerous water sourcesIn the river basin, from areas that flood in the winter after glaciers that will melt in the summer. Without tributaries and rivers, the basin would slowly flood.

Some tributaries are a little more in the country than the spring, while others are large rivers and streams. Everyone discharges water along with any substances that could dissolve in water, such as mud, crumbling organic material and pollution from places such as farms, wastewater treatment plants and companies built along the shores of the inflow.

When the tributaries meet, they gradually increase until they reach the main tribe of the river. Along the way, the sediment settles out of the water and leaves a rippling layer of mud behind, along with any other materials that the tributary could raise. Finally, the water reaches the ocean, where it will flow along with global currents, evaporate and eventually start the cycle again.

Many nations faced serious water pollution as a result of roRelaxing industrialization and human populations. Biologists often use tributaries to identify pollution sources; For example, if the river experiences eyelashes flowers, biologists could try to isolate part of the river where the flower occurs before the tributaries testing in this section to try to find a source of nutrients that causes a flower. Traveling along the inflow could reveal something like a fertilization leak on a pig farm or a fertilizer drainage from a farm.
