An estuary in simple terms is a water body that is found at the junction
or meeting point of rivers and seas. This water body is home to plants and
animals that are capable of thriving in brackish water, which is a mixture of
salty sea water and fresh water from the land. Animals primarily rely on
estuaries for food, stopover during migration and breeding. Because of this,
estuaries are considered to be very productive systems all over the world.
