A tributary is a stream or river that flows into a larger river or lake. It contributes water to the main water body but does not flow directly into an ocean. Tributaries are significant for watershed management, as they help to drain the surrounding land and can impact the ecology and hydrology of the larger river system. They often play a crucial role in sediment transport and nutrient delivery within the watershed.
