Relate smaller named waters to glaciated terrain and drainage

Continue from Hohe Tauern ponds to larger Alpine feature types

Pond records narrow attention to smaller named waters in Hohe Tauern National Park without collapsing lakes and impounded basins into the same class. Other represented categories place those minor waters within glacial high terrain and descending drainage without inventing examples, fixing seasonal conditions, implying access, assigning Pond identity to every pool, or claiming exhaustive coverage.
