River Network Hierarchy

River Network Hierarchy is a systematic classification framework that organizes stream channels within a drainage basin according to their topological and geometric relationships, distinguishing itself through the formalized ordering of tributary segments based on flow direction, connectivity, and branching patterns to represent the nested structure of river systems.
