rivernetwork
A river network, also known as a drainage network or stream network, is a system of interconnected streams and rivers that collectively drain a particular area of land. This area is called a drainage basin or watershed. The network's structure is determined by the topography of the land, with water flowing downhill and merging into larger channels.
The most common type of river network is dendritic, which resembles the branching pattern of a tree.
River networks are crucial for various ecological and hydrological processes. They transport water, sediment, and nutrients
