In geography, an endorheic basin is awatershed from which there is no outflow of water (either on the surface as rivers, or underground by flow or diffusion through rock or permeable material). The term hasGreek roots, endo, "inside" and rhein, "to flow". Any rain (or other precipitation) that falls inside an endorheic basin remains there permanently, leaving the system only by evaporation. Endorheic basins are also called "internal drainage systems".
