Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

In the United Kingdom, where the charity Pond Conservation [1] has made some of the most extensive studies of ponds, the now widely adopted definition of a pond is 'A man-made or natural waterbody which is between 1 m2 and 2 hectares (~5 acres or 20,000 m²) in area, which holds water for four months of the year or more'.[1]

In other parts of Europe some biologists prefer to set the upper size limit at 5 ha (12.355 acres)[2], and in North America even larger waterbodies are often called ponds. For example, Walden Pond in Concord, Massachusetts measures 62 acres. The international Ramsar wetland convention sets the upper size limit for ponds as 8 ha (19.768 acres). Although the size cutoff between ponds and lakes is partly subjective both are formed by ponding (standing) water.

Ponds may be man-made or natural in origin and can be made by excavating a hollow in which water may lie, filling an existing depression with ground or surface water or by retaining water from a stream, or by forming a dam to impound the water in a valley. Ponds can be made by a very wide range of natural processes, although in many parts of the world these are now severely constrained by human activity. In some countries backyard ponds or garden ponds are popular and common.

The techniques may be combined to form a reservoir in flat country by enclosing an area with an embankment. Such a pond, unless very small, is usually called a reservoir. In some cultures, the meaning has been extended to include small bodies of water impounded naturally. [3]
