An area where fresh river water mixes with salty ocean water

Real World Example

Imagine trying to mix two different paint colors to get the perfect shade for your living room wall. This challenge is similar to what happens in an estuary, where fresh river water blends with salty ocean water to create a unique environment. Just as the colors must balance without overpowering each other to create a harmonious shade, the estuary forms a delicate balance between freshwater and saltwater, resulting in a diverse and productive ecosystem.
