moving surface water
It is usually the other way round. Moving in the direction of water flow, streams merge together to form larger rivers, the streams are called the river's tributaries. The point of joining is called a "confluence".
In rivers and streams, gravity. In the ocean, probably thermal currents.

Rivers, streams, the Atlantic Ocean and other normal water sources.
Majority of rivers and streams have fresh water flowing in them.
Streams join together to become rivers. Then the water from the rivers and streams will eventually run into the ocean or a lake.
Streams are merely tributaries of rivers. A river is the wider channel into which smaller creeks, streams and rivers flow. (Streams do not flow out of rivers.) Streams carry water from higher sources, emptying into the river. As more streams empty into a river, it tends to become broader, simply because of the greater volume of water it is carrying.
