Runoff is the flow of water, typically from precipitation, that moves over the land surface and eventually reaches rivers, lakes, and oceans. It occurs when the ground is saturated, impervious, or when rainfall exceeds the absorption capacity of the soil. Runoff can carry pollutants and sediments, affecting water quality and ecosystems. It plays a crucial role in the water cycle and contributes to the distribution of freshwater resources.
