Water moves through the upper catchment area primarily through precipitation, which falls as rain or snow and infiltrates the soil. It can also flow overland as surface runoff into streams and rivers. Additionally, groundwater movement occurs as water seeps through soil and rock layers, contributing to surface water bodies. This dynamic process is influenced by factors such as topography, vegetation, and soil composition.
