What is water called when it is not fresh and is partly salty?

Asked by TRISHEA

Answer (3)

Water that is not fresh and partly salty is called brackish or briny. This means that the water is saltier than bodies of fresh water, but not as salty as the ocean. This usually happens in estuaries, which are bodies of water that both flow into the ocean and receive fresh water from other streams, causing the two types of water to mix.

Brackish water is a type of water that is partly salty and is mainly found in estuaries where fresh water meets sea water. Its salinity ranges from 0.5 to 30 parts per thousand (ppt). This unique water habitat is essential for various aquatic species and plays a crucial role in the ecosystem.
