Both Article 13 of the TSC and Article 9 of the LOSC provide that if a river flows directly into the sea, the baseline shall be a straight line across the mouth of the river between points on the low water line of its banks. No limit is placed on the length of such a closing line. The rule applies only to rivers which flow directly into the sea. It does not apply to rivers which flow into the sea via estuaries
