Well, let's suppose the reservoir would average 50 meters deep. Lake Mead is a lot deeper at Hoover dam, but it's also a pretty unusual reservoir. There are 1000 liters per cubic meter, so 5*10^6 liters = 5000 cubic meters. With an average depth of 50 meters, that's a surface of 100 square meters. Considerably smaller than you're average suburban lot. That means we're talking about a farm pond, not a national monument. So maybe 50 meters is a lousy estimate of the depth. Let's say it's 2 meters. So now we have a surface area of 2500 square meters, which is 50 meters on a side, which would be a pretty good sized farm pond. But you get the idea by now. It's somewhere in that range.

What is the term for the depth of the water needed?

The term for the depth of water needed for a specific purpose is often referred to as "water depth requirement" or "minimum water depth." This can vary based on the context, such as for navigation, aquatic life habitat, or construction purposes. In marine navigation, for instance, it may be called "draft," which indicates the minimum depth required for a vessel to float safely.
