If something such as an event is a watershed in the history or development of something, it is very important because it represents the beginning of a new stage in it. The election of Mary Robinson in 1990 was a watershed in Irish politics = turning point

watershed
A watershed consists of all the land and waterways that drain into the same body of water Smaller watersheds join with other watersheds to drain into larger watersheds; thousands of smaller watersheds drain into large rivers like the Mississippi or Colorado rivers Coweeta was an ideal place to site a hydrologic lab because the area contains many sub-watersheds, allowing scientists to carry on numerous research projects without fear of contamination from adjacent projects An excellent primer on watersheds, including a utility that allows you to find the watershed where you reside

watershed
The drainage area of a stream, river, or other body of water There are nine gauged watersheds in the HBEF, ranging in size from 11 to 76 hectares, and researchers have conducted experiments on many of them Because these watersheds are similar to each other, researchers can experiment with one entire watershed (for example, by cutting all the trees down in the "treatment" watershed), leave another one alone ( the "reference" watershed), and then compare them If, in following years, the treatment watershed is very different from the reference watershed, scientists will learn how cutting down trees affects entire forests This type of experiment is referred to as a "paired watershed" experiment More information about watersheds can be found on Page 8 of the Introduction Tour
