A sub-drainage area, also called a watershed
or drainage basin, is an area where all contributing surface waters share
the same drainage outlet. Drainage areas channel runoff from precipitation
and snow melt into stream flow. The resulting hierarchy of streams and rivers
and their associated sub-drainage areas form the National Hydrological Network
of Canada. There are 11 major drainage areas and 164 sub-drainage
areas in Canada. Canada's entire land and fresh water area has been allocated
to individual drainage areas.
