Geography
English term or phrase: river network
Much of the river network is, in reality, a tidal sea estuary with significant tidal saline intrusion up to 175 km inland. The low altitude of most parts of the country increases the risk of flood events near watercourses and coastal areas, particularly during and following the rainy seasons.
