Reliction rights refer to the legal rights of landowners to claim ownership of land that emerges as a result of the receding waters of a body of water, such as a river or lake. When water levels decrease and expose previously submerged land, the landowner may gain rights to this newly exposed property. These rights can vary based on local laws and regulations, and they often depend on the specific circumstances surrounding the land's exposure. Reliction is distinct from avulsion, where land is altered suddenly by natural forces, affecting ownership differently.
