Tributaries

Tributaries are rivers or streams that can be supplied to larger bodies of water. The Snake River originated from Yellowstone Park and joined Colombia near Hanford, the largest tributary of Colombia. As water flows downstream, fragments of organic matter such as organisms and decomposition of leaves gather and supply nutrients to plants, fish and wildlife.

The tributary of the Columbia River derives from the mountainous areas characterized by the forests of the subalpine belt. Here, the gradient is steep and the flow velocity is high. When a tributary of Colombia flows into the watershed, pine and fir trees dominate the forest. Compared with higher altitude, the climate is more dry, the gradient is more gentle, and the flow is decreasing. In the estuary, the forest contains Sugi and Niseemuri. Those trees flourish in intense rainfall and humid environment

Colombian tributaries are also strongly influenced by seasonal runoff. Rainfall is mainly caused by snowfall in winter, and it significantly increases the amount of snowmelt outflow in spring and early summer. This may lead to flooding when rain or strong wind other than season occurs

Plants, fish, wildlife flourish around tributaries. Many large mammals and semi-aqueous seeds, such as playful otters, make tributaries part of the territory they call their home. Matsuzume and other small birds and mammals also live in these waters where there are abundant insects and woodland areas are nearby. Fish such as bluish and squid will lay eggs to tributary sources, mountain pheasants will cold and prosper in fast moving Daliu region.

Seven types of Pacific Salmon (Chinook, Akai, Yew, Friends, Pink, Steelhead, Squid) originate from tributaries in the Columbia River Basin. When a koi fly emerges from the egg, the specific tributary where they were born is printed in their genetic code. They begin to descend towards the sea and sweep the flow through them. When they returned to the river to continue their life cycle as adults, they miraculously went back to the same tributary they had hatched. Therefore, tributary health is important to ensure genetic diversity of salmon and other migratory birds.

Bejan shows that hierarchical structure is inevitable using Horton's flow number law, and data shows that there is a tributary of 3 to 5 in the parent stream's lifecycle. When the mother sleeps and the next generation tributary becomes yak again, uniformity disappears. When Horton's legal multiplier was applied to social wealth movements, Beyond stated that distribution of wealth became unequal even for reasonable complexity, like five families in a small village.
