A stream is a flowing body of Waterwith a Current_(stream), confined within a Stream_bedand Stream_bank. Depending on its locale or certain characteristics, a stream may be referred to as a branch, brook, beck, Burn_(topography), creek, Kill_(body_of_water),Lick_(stream),Rill,Riversyke, Bayou, rivulet, or run. In some countries or communities a stream may be defined by its size. In the United_Statesa stream is classified as a watercourse less than 60 feet (18 metres) wide.
When the elevation of the water table is below the stream, the stream is considered to be gaining water from the surrounding groundwater, a process known as gaining or effluent stream. In this situation, the stream acts as a discharge point for groundwater, contributing to its flow. Conversely, if the water table is above the stream, the stream may lose water to the groundwater, referred to as a losing or influent stream.
The mouth of a stream is where it meets a larger body of water, such as a lake, ocean, or another stream. It is where the stream's water flows out and mixes with the water of the larger body.
A stream is a flow of rain water that is smaller than a river.
It is a fresh water stream.
The mouth of a stream is where the stream flows out into a larger body of water.

The Gulf Stream is classed as a warm water current.
A stream of water cutting through land is a river.
Stream gradient, or the slope of the stream channel, affects stream velocity by influencing the speed at which water flows downstream. A steeper stream gradient typically results in a faster water flow velocity, as the force of gravity pulls water downhill more strongly. Conversely, a gentler stream gradient leads to slower water flow velocity.
No. Stream up is not a compound word.
The archerfish is noted for knocking insects into the water by shooting a stream of water.
