Streams

A stream is a natural flowing watercourse contained within a channel, generally smaller than a river but defined primarily by local naming and hydrological context. Streams may be perennial, seasonal, intermittent, spring-fed, glacial, or ephemeral and often form tributaries within larger drainage networks. No universal width or discharge threshold cleanly separates a stream from a river.
