I’ve yet to find a term or tag name that I like for the case where the water disappears from the surface in a desert environment. One issue is the location will vary depending on how big the storm was (or perhaps for a seasonal stream how wet the preceding wet season was). So it might be a tag

Consider the Saint Lawrence river. Often the Rio de la Plata is claimed to be the widest river estuary in the world, but some maps of the Saint Lawrence estuary show it extending all the way to the eastern tip of Île d'Anticosti (Anticosti Island), which would make the mouth of the river estuary
