Definition

A body of water that is entirely surrounded by land.

Description

It may occur in a natural terrain depression in which water collects, or may be impounded by a dam, or formed by its bed being hollowed out of the soil, or formed by embanking and/or damming up a natural hollow (for example: by a beaver dam). Inland waterbodies have many uses such as: a source of water for irrigation, industrial processes, human consumption, and recreation. Impounded inland waterbodies may also be used for flood control.
