I can't tell if this is a neologism or misspelling. All of the sources talk about watersheds. There are some articles on google about precipitationshed as a singular word, but many seem related to articles published in Sweden (ex http://www.stockholmresilience.org/21/news--events/seminar-and-events/whiteboard-seminars/9-27-2012-what-is-a-precipitationshed.html) and the author. Google even asks if I meant precipitation shed as two words. Another one uses it as a twitter hash tag (https://plus.google.com/+JeanBaptistePichancourt/posts/dSajj7daiii). Results from older literature use precipitation shed as two separate words, and start showing up on page 3 of google results (https://books.google.com/books?id=oh1aAAAAYAAJ&pg=RA1-PR5&lpg=RA1-PR5&dq=precipitationshed&source=bl&ots=JIY4yRhZU_&sig=1WR9_aPHYjG8tcIR7X8F8pDdKCU&hl=en&sa=X&ei=FAPWVPmOGoirogTz9oHwCw&ved=0CCYQ6AEwBTgU). The earliest source I see is from 2011, while older sources all (as far as I can tell) use it as two words. Expert opinion on the matter is required. ηoian ‡orever ηew ‡rontiers 12:21, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
