How Are Ponds Formed?

Ponds form when water begins to fill in a depression in the ground. Early plants or pioneers start growing on the bottom of the pond. Eventually plants called emergents start to grow on the edge of the pond. Over time the plants in and around a pond grow and die and decompose.

How do ponds get water?

Ponds and lakes may get their water from several sources. Some falls directly into them as precipitation. Some enters as runoff and some from streams and rivers. Water leaves ponds and lakes through evaporation and also as outflow.
