What if you built a shed over the river?  Would that effectively keep a block of the river from being exposed to the weather and stay unfrozen during winter?

Either way, a cistern would be easier.  Or breach the caverns and set up a well down in the first layer.

Freezing/thawing is determined by whether a tile is "Above Ground" or "Subterranean," not whether it's "Outside" or "Inside." This seems to be a common misconception these days.

in theory if someone has enough time they can make an "underground" brook/river/stream by casting an obsidian roof above the water

i personally dont have enough time to do that

Still doesn't work. Once above ground, always above ground.
