Water that comes from [[aquifer]]s, as well as any water source that extends from the edge of the map ([[river]]s, [[brook]]s, [[ocean]]s, and some [[lake]]s) is considered to be '''sourced water'''. Any sourced water is an endless supply of water that can never run dry, although it can freeze for part or all of the year in colder biomes. Murky pools, although not 'sourced water' as described here, also slowly generate water during [[rain]] storms. This can make it possible for a murky pool to replenish itself even when it has been completely drained. | Water that comes from [[aquifer]]s, as well as any water source that extends from the edge of the map ([[river]]s, [[brook]]s, [[ocean]]s, and some [[lake]]s) is considered to be '''sourced water'''.
