River Plate Basin Explanation: After looking at a couple of international studies its seems that in official British English the basin is referred to as the River Plate Basin, yet is often referred to as the Plata River Basin in other English speaking countries. However, in academic journals, the most common translation seems to be the River Plate Basin (i.e. the offical British English transation). I list a couple of examples. https://www.jstor.org/stable/43618024?seq=1 https://www.internationalwaterlaw.org/documents/regionaldocs... Hope this helps. |
