 a large dataset of pond characteristics and ecosystem function from a global literature survey and compared
 ecosystem structural and functional metrics among ponds, wetlands, and lakes. Finally, we propose an evidencebased pond defnition.
 Results and discussion
-Current scientifc defnitions of ponds. We compiled existing scientifc defnitions of ponds by conducting a backwards and forwards search of papers referenced in or subsequently referencing three seminal
-pond papers8,17,18 (see “Methods”). We ultimately compiled 54 pond defnitions from scientifc literature (data
-available19). Te variables most ofen included in defnitions were surface area (91% of defnitions), depth (48%),
-permanence (48%), origin (i.e., natural or human-made; 33%), and standing water (33%; Fig. 2a). When surface
-area or depth were included in defnitions, they were ofen mentioned qualitatively (e.g., “small” and “shallow”).
-Of the 61% of defnitions that included a maximum pond surface area, the range was 0.1 to 100 ha, the median
-was 2 ha, and all but two defnitions were≤10 ha (Fig. 2b). For depth, only 17% of studies provided a maximum
-depth cutof, which ranged 2 to 8 m (Fig. 2c). Of the 26 defnitions mentioning permanence, 22 stated that ponds
-could be temporary or permanent and only three indicated that ponds are exclusively permanent waterbodies.
-Of the 18 defnitions mentioning origin, 17 mentioned that ponds could be natural or human-made with the
-remaining study indicating ponds can have diverse origins.
-Other important factors included in defnitions related to morphometry. For example, 30% of defnitions
-mentioned the potential for plants to colonize the entire basin, which relates to high light penetration (mentioned
-in 11% of defnitions) and/or shallow depths. For example, Wetzel11 defnes ponds as having enough light penetration that macrophyte photosynthesis can occur over the entire waterbody. As such, these conditions may be
-Figure 1. We call lentic waterbodies by a variety of names in the English language including ponds, lakes,
-wetlands, reservoirs, oxbows, prairie potholes, vernal pools, lagoons, dams, puddles, and shallow lakes. Tese
-names may or may not correspond to ecological and systematic diferences. Generally, laypeople and experts, as
-individuals, will quickly diferentiate among broad categories of ponds, lakes, and wetlands; however, individuals
-may respond in diferent ways depending on their background and experiences. We present three diferent
-images of waterbodies that could each be categorized as lake, pond, or wetland using objective (e.g., morphology
-or vegetative cover) or more subjective criteria keeping cognizant of the complexity within and potential overlap
-among waterbody types.
