A watershed boundary, also known as a drainage divide, is the geographical line that separates neighboring drainage basins, directing the flow of water towards different rivers, lakes, or oceans. It is defined by the highest points of land surrounding a particular area, ensuring that all precipitation within the boundary flows to a common outlet. Watershed boundaries are crucial for understanding hydrology, managing water resources, and protecting ecosystems.
A watershed boundary is the line separating one watershed from another. It marks the area where water flows into a particular river, lake, or ocean. Everything that falls within a watershed boundary ultimately drains to the same outlet point.
A boundary of watershed is defined by watershed divide. This is the ridge of uppermost elevation surrounding a stream or network of stream. Rainwaters that will fall outside of the boundary will enter different watershed and will flow to different bodies of water.

The catchment is the correct answer. Commonly folk say 'watershed' but the watershed is the boundary (ridges etc) of the catchment.
Divides are the boundaries that separate streams in adjacent drainage basin.
Definition of Boundary - A line or area determining the limits of an area. "Do not dare pass my boundary!"
The official definition of boundary is "a line that marks the limits of an area; a dividing line."
The first stage in boundary evolution is: '''definition.''' [Not delimination] >:-(
A watershed is called a watershed as it supply the water in a drainage system.A watershed is a defining moment of insight and claritywhere healing begins and lives are reclaimed
the point where a system ends and surroundings begin
A 'mering' is an old word for a land boundary.
