estuaries (<marine bodies of water by biome>, marine bodies of water, ... Built Environment (hierarchy name)) |

Note: Category of marine body of water comprising areas where freshwater streams or rivers merge with the ocean. This mixing of waters with such different salt concentrations creates a very interesting and unique ecosystem. An estuary is usually a funnel-shaped stream mouth or embayment where fresh water mixes with sea water under tidal influences.

| Dutch ..... Categorie van maritieme watermassa's bestaande uit gebieden waar zoetwaterstromen of rivieren samenkomen met de zee of oceaan. Deze vermenging van water met zulke verschillende zoutconcentraties zorgt voor een zeer interessant en uniek ecosysteem. Een estuarium is meestal een trechtervormige riviermond of baai waar zoet water zich mengt met zeewater onder getijde-invloeden. |
