The huge lake formed in eastern Washington when continental glaciers dammed rivers is called Lake Missoula. This prehistoric lake was repeatedly filled and drained by the catastrophic Missoula Floods during the last ice age, shaping the landscape of the region.
An aquifer is an underground layer of water-bearing rock or sediment that holds and transmits groundwater. A watershed, on the other hand, is an area of land where all the water drains into a common outlet like a river, lake, or ocean. Aquifers supply water to watersheds through groundwater flow.
An underground lake becomes an aquifer when it is a permeable layer of rock or sediment that holds and transmits groundwater. Aquifers can store and supply large quantities of water to wells and springs.
AQUIFER-Rock formation/its derivatives where ground water occurs and move but invisible WATERSHED-it is a land surface unit where we alllive and surface water occurs& is visible
If any part of the lake surface were really to be any higher, water would soon flow to lower parts. So, there shouldn't be any significant differences in elevation in a lake. In a river, the situation is different, because water is indeed flowing all the time, but a lake, almost by definition, doesn't have large currents.

The Molonglo River was dammed to create the artificial lake Lake Burley Griffin.
