distributaries (streams) (streams, riverine bodies of water, ... Built Environment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Streams that form branches or man-made streams that flow away from the main stream. Examples are deltas and irrigation canals. For streams flowing into and contributing to the flow of a larger body, use "tributaries (streams)." |

Additional Notes: |
|
Dutch ..... Stromen die takken vormen of door de mens gemaakte stromen die vanaf de hoofdstroom stromen. Voorbeelden zijn irrigatiekanalen en de vertakkingen in delta's. Gebruik 'zijrivieren' voor stromen die zich bij een grotere stroom voegen en met hun water hieraan bijdragen. |
