Estuary Model
Product Code : JA-ERAM-4427
The Estuary Model (SKU JA-ERAM-4427) is a 35 x 40 cm geography landform model of an estuary: an arm of the sea that extends inland to meet the mouth of a river. In an estuary fresh river water mixes with salt sea water and the tide moves in and out, which makes estuaries important for ports and wildlife. JaincoLab makes this estuary model for school geography rooms and college physical geography teaching, alongside its delta, bay and cape models.
