A watershed is an area where all draining water goes into the same river system. It is also described as an area that holds a collective group of rivers and streams that drain into a large singular body of water, like a lake, river or ocean.
A watershed can be both small or large and usually small watersheds are part of a larger one. An interconnecting network of waterways is formed by the streams flowing from rivers into the ocean.
The process of surface runoff is when water flows from the surface of a watershed to streams and rivers. The process of infiltration is when water filters through soil and finally drains into rivers and streams.
