	Fens - LoveToKnow 1911
		Hydrographically, the Fens embrace the lower parts of the drainage-basins of the rivers Witham, Welland, Nene and Great Ouse; and against these streams, as against the ocean, they are protected by earthen embankments, 10 to 15 ft. high.
		Holland and other Fens on the west side of the Witham were finally drained in 1767, although not without much rioting and lawlessness; and a striking account of the wonderful improvements effected by a generation later is recorded in Arthur Young's General View of the Agriculture of the County of Lincoln (London, 1 799).
		Various phases of Fen life, mostly of the past, are described in Charles Kingsley's Hereward the Wake (Cambridge, 1866); Baring Gould's Cheap-Jack Zita (London, 1893); Manville Fenn's Dick o' the Fens (London, 2887); and J. Bealby's A Daughter of the Fen (London, 1896).

	Glossary of Water Resource Terms
		When sewers are constructed this way, wastewater treatment plants have to be sized to deal with stormwater flows and oftentimes some of the water receives little or no treatment.
		Fens are less acidic than bogs, deriving most of their water from groundwater rich in calcium and magnesium.
		When a sewer is constructed this way, wastewater treatment plants can be sized to treat sanitary wastes only and all of the water entering the plant receives complete treatment at all times.

	Telegraph \| Travel \| Cambridgeshire: The magic of walking on water
		The county councils of Norfolk and Cambridge are lucky to have the energetic FRWA and its chairman on their side in promoting and looking after the Fen Rivers Way, a 50-mile walkers' highway that runs north from Cambridge to King's Lynn and The Wash.
		He would fight with the Fen lightermen, dance with their daughters and distribute largesse in the form of rum punch from his seven-gallon gotch.
		The little Fen town on its silty island of high ground was always a stronghold of local resistance to outsiders.

	IPCC information sheets - Irish Fens
		Fen habitats are rare in Ireland today and are under increasing threat as a result of drainage, land reclamation and development.
		Fens are particularly sensitive to damage from drainage, and have been targeted as areas suitable for landfills and road schemes.

	Riparian Birds of Ohio's Scenic Rivers
		One of the primary emphasis of the Ohio Scenic Rivers Program is the maintenance and restoration of the forested corridors which cloak the stream banks of Ohio's scenic rivers.
		Forested riparian corridors on Ohio rivers may vary in depth from as little as a single row of trees to extensive forests extending from hundreds to thousands of feet back from the stream channel.
		The presence or absence of key indicator species is one way to assess the quality of the riparian forests found along Ohio's scenic rivers.

		Rivers left to their own devices force their way through the countryside creating oxbow lakes, reedbeds, backwaters, washlands and supporting fen and bogs.
		There continues to be a lot of demand on rivers to control floods, to discharge into, to maintain drained land and to abstract water for domestic, industrial and agricultural use.
		The River Frome supports one of the largest populations of Water Voles in the Country and the Upper stretches of the river support rare Fen plant and invertebrate communities.

	Introduction to Feng Shui (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Feng shui is an ancient science that has its roots in the Chinese way of viewing the Universe, where all things on Earth are categorized into five basic elements, and take on implications of positive or negative energy.
		The best way to go about it is to take a systematic approach, in so doing, it is necessary to first understand at least the basic fundamentals and concepts of feng shui.
		Thus dragons and tigers, turtles and phoenixes are superimposed onto a cityscape for purposes of interpreting landscape and form school feng shui in a modern metropolis.

	The Way of Nebutsu Faith
		In that way, his meditation brought him deeper and deeper inside, until he came to the ignorance at the base of his existence.
		In this work he divides Buddhist ways of salvation into two groups, the Path of Sages and the Pure Land Path, and then expresses his view that, in the ages far removed from Shakyamuni, Buddhists are unable to understand the Dharma correctly and so their practices are bound to fall short of attaining their objectives.
		In a more general way, Nagarjuna was one of the earliest exponents of Mahayana, and was reputed to have founded the School of the Middle (Madhyamika).

		The River Lark was extended westward to join the new man-made channel and the old meandering course of the Ouse via Prickwillow became redundant.
		By then, the drainage of the fens had been underway for more than two hundred years with steam pumps replacing wind pumps at a time when agriculture was largely powered by heavy horses.
		The watery fen provided a plentiful supply of fish, eels and waterfowl, which was often used as rent to pay the Abbot of Ely.

	The History of the Fen Rivers Way
		The Fen rivers Way come into being in 1993 when a letter was sent out to parishes along the river which were taking part in the Parish Paths Partnership.

	Rivers and Streams (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Rivers and streams are moving bodies of water.
		Because of urbanization, the building of structures and paved roads has caused more water to make its way to the rivers, instead of being absorbed by the soil to be released gradually.
		The largest rivers in Illinois have very wide floodplains that should remain undeveloped to minimize flood damage.

	Fen Rivers Way
		Fen Rivers Way, a long distance path running for nearly 80kms (50 miles) between the historic settlements of Cambridge and King's Lynn, traces the course of rivers that drain slowly across the Fens into the Wash.
		Taking in the internationally significant environment of the Ouse Washes, the journey follows the River Great Ouse through the dramatic open skyscapes and past the massive floodbanks that protect the low lying Fens.
		At King's Lynn, the Fen Rivers Way connects with the Wash Coast Path (through the Peter Scott Walk) taking walkers along the remote coast marshes into Lincolnshire, or the Nar Valley Way which leads you into the heart of Norfolk.
