Endorheic Basin

An endorheic basin is a basin where water is stored that does not outflow into rivers or lakes. Instead all of the water in the basin stays in the basin until it evaporates or seeps into the rocks.

Estosha pan is an endorheic salt pan, meaning that it stores water like an endorheic basin, and when its empty the ground is left as salt covered mud.

Sua pan is part of an endorheic ecosystem and fills up with water in the summer and stores it until April or May.
