Curly Brunette Girl In The Nature At The Pond With A Big Tree

Standing bodies of water such as puddles, ponds and lakes are distinguished from a water course, such as a brook, creek or stream via current speed. While currents in streams are easily observed, ponds and lakes possess thermally driven microcurrents and moderate wind driven currents. These features distinguish a pond from many other aquatic terrain features, such as stream pools and tide pools.
Some mills use the kinetic energy of the moving water in the pond to generate electricity.
