The term "sea" refers to a body of water that is contained in a depression on the Earth other than land and that is continuous as a whole. The water that fills it is called seawater, and its salinity is roughly constant throughout the world. Whether an inlet, a bay, or a lagoon near the coast is called a sea or a lake is largely a matter of past custom. *Some of the terminology that refers to "pelagic sediments" is listed below.
