The overflow of water from the banks of a body of water onto the land?
Wiki User
∙ 7y ago
the overflow of water itself is simply called a flood, the land that this will filter out onto can be either a floodplain or a marsh.
Generally, a floodplain relates to freshwater, and marshland refers to salt water. In any case, the water needs to be continually moving; and so lakes do not count in this way.
