This covered pool is really a good example of a watershed. The blue cover represents the watershed, the area in which precipitation that falls flows down-gradient towards the lowest part of the basin, the center of the pool cover in this case. Likewise, in nature, water flows towards a valley, river, or lake.
A watershed is an area of land that drains all the streams and rainfall to a common outlet such as the outflow of a reservoir, mouth of a bay, or any point along a stream channel.he word watershed is sometimes used interchangeably with drainage basin or catchment. Ridges and hills that separate two watersheds are called the drainage divide. The watershed consists of surface water--lakes, streams, reservoirs, and wetlands--and all the underlying ground water.
