Is there sea weed in estuaries?

You can definitely find seaweed in estuaries. An estuary is defined as a place were sea tides and river water meet, at the mouth of the river. Due to high tides salt water can be forced a long way up the river, thereby creating a partially marine environment well inland. The salinity of the water therefore changes from high to low over a twelve-hour cycle, but many organisms, not just seaweeds, can cope with changes of salinity and colonise these estuarine areas. Algae such as the Bladderwrack, Fucus vesiculosus, have very high tolerance to low salt levels and can be found a long way inland of many river estuaries.
