Abstract
    Although well-established in scientific literature, the meaning of the term 'estuary' has attracted only limited consideration in international law. Scientific literature has defined it as 'denoting a semi-enclosed coastal body of water which has a free connection with the open sea and within which sea water is measurably diluted with fresh water derived from land drainage'. A glossary drawn up to assist the understanding of the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea defines the term as follows: 'The tidal mouth of a river, where the seawater is measurably diluted by the fresh water from the river'. This article looks at the notion from a legal perspective, places it in a European context and finally looks at it more specifically from the law of international watercourses.
