This
text
states
that
although
all
estuaries
are
similar
in
that
they
are
semi-enclosed
bodies
of
brackish
water,
they
are
categorized
with
regard
to
geological
characteristics,
and
further
distinguished
on
the
basis
of
stratification
and
circulation
patterns.
According
to
their
geological
characteristics,
estuaries
are
classified
as:
