Rivers- a natural stream of water of fairly large size flowing in a definite course or channel or series of diverging and converging channels.

Lakes / lagoons- A large inland body of standing fresh or salt water. Lakes generally form in depressions, such as those created by glacial or volcanic action; they may also form when a section of a river becomes dammed or when a channel is isolated by a change in a river's course.

Streams- A flow of water in a channel or bed, as a brook, rivulet, or small river.

Floodplains- A plain bordering a river and subject to flooding.

Wetlands- A lowland area, such as a marsh or swamp, that is saturated with moisture, especially when regarded as the natural habitat of wildlife: a program to preserve our state's wetlands.

Subterranean / ground waters- existing, situated, or operating below the surface of the earth; underground.

Marshes- An area of soft, wet, low-lying land, characterized by grassy vegetation and often forming a transition zone between water and land.

Ponds- a body of water smaller than a lake, sometimes artificially formed, as by damming a stream.

Reservoirs- A natural or artificial pond or lake used for the storage and regulation of water.
