rivers and lakes
Definition
- A river is a natural watercourse, usually freshwater, flowing towards an ocean, a lake, a sea, or another river. Small rivers may be called by several other names, including stream, creek, brook, rivulet, and rill. A lake is a body of relatively still water of considerable size, localized in a basin, that is surrounded by land apart from a river, stream, or other form of moving water that serves to feed or drain the lake. Lakes are inland and not part of the ocean and therefore are distinct from lagoons, and are larger and deeper than ponds. Lakes can be contrasted with rivers or streams, which are usually flowing.
