             abstract = "The direct problem in runoff modeling is to determine the 
                         direction of flow that every drop of water will have to rush into 
                         an area of known digital elevation model. The set of all terrain 
                         points that drain water that it can precipitate to a common point, 
                         called outlet, determines the watershed upstream of such outlet. 
                         In this article, the definition of Watershed is presented as an 
                         Inverse Problem, and a Stochastic Approach is proposed: enabling 
                         the direction of flow is not unique in every precipitation events, 
                         and therefore the Watershed is represented as a map indicating the 
                         probability of each point of the ground part of the set. The 
                         collaborative HydroC library is used as a basis for the 
                         implementation of the codes (numerical method) originally 
                         developed for this investigation. Probabilistic results 
                         (analitical method) are obtained based on the theorem of total and 
                         conditional probability. The results show that the Watershed 
                         related to the classical approach (deterministic) may not even be 
                         the modal configuration of the distribution of different Watershed 
                         configurations.",
