Freshwater is water that contains only minimal quantities of dissolved salts, thus distinguishing it from sea water or brackish water.

All freshwater ultimately comes from precipitation of atmospheric water vapor, reaching inland lakes, rivers, and groundwater bodies directly, or after melting of snow or ice.
