The concept of channel diameter can be extended to define the number of links along the trunk channel of tributaries in a basin. In topologically random channel networks, the occurrence of tributaries with a specified diameter can be expressed by recursive equations for basins of given magnitude. Comparison with two sets of stream data indicate a close resemblance with calculated values.
