文法句型

riparian + noun

用法筆記

Almost always used before a noun (attributive). Common in environmental science, ecology, geography, and law. In legal contexts, 'riparian rights' refers to the right of landowners whose property borders a waterway to make reasonable use of the water.

常見錯誤

The riparian zone was covered in trees.
'riparian' already means 'bank-related,' so 'riparian bank' is redundant.
