		The water level of lake Neuchâtel is influenced by different inflowing streams originating from the Jura and the Plateau, the water level of lake Bienne (connected through a canal) and the river Aar.
		This is regulated by a sluice at the outflow of lake Bienne.
		The decreased fluctuations of the lake’s water level, resulting in drying up of the marshes and the encroachment by forest, shrub and grass vegetation, represent also a serious threat.

	Ramsar Study Tour to Swiss Ramsar sites, May 2002
		Along the southern shore of lake Neuchâtel, the lowering of the water level created an almost continuous belt of fenland reaching from Yverdon-les-Bains (SW) to the Thielle canal (NE), bordered in part by the sandstone cliffs that formed the original boundary of the lake.
		Tourist infrastructure and the attractiveness of the lake for leisure and recreation purposes are taking their toll of the land and lead to disturbance of wildlife.
		The artificial lake has been recently created, and the parallel lines in the marsh indicate where a triennial mowing programme with a special machine is helping to keep back the vegetation succession.

		History of the Wines of Neuchâtel (Switzerland) Introduction From the bustling commercial and cultural centre of the castle of Vaumarcus, by way of La Béroche - a balcony between lake and mountain which richly deserves its name of Neuchâtel Riviera - vines are to be found mingling happily with roses or cherry trees.
		An Old Story Vines have been part of the scenery along the banks of Lake Neuchâtel for two thousand years, proving that their cultivation has been and remains to this day a key activity in the Neuchâtel region, even if wine-growing has somewhat lost its role of erstwhile economic predominance.
		With the waters of the lake lapping at the foot of the vines right up to St-Blaise, shelter is to be found in the gentler climate of the Entre-deux-Lacs area, between the two lakes.

		The Loclat – or Lake of Saint-Blaise – is situated approximately 1 km north of the Neolithic lake villages at Saint-Blaise/Bains des Dames ; the Loclat was originally separated from Lake Neuchâtel by marshland.
		The core L-P1a, taken in the middle of the lake, produced a complete Late Glacial and Holocene sediment and pollen sequence, providing a vegetational history covering approximately the 16'000 years since the retreat of the Rhône Glacier.
		Its processing in the lake (retting) provoked, during certain periods, the formation of an anaerobic environment, causing corresponding sediments to be both laminated and strongly organic.

		Sami's fishing hut was built by his father on the edge of NeuchÕtel Lake, where our ancestors (Lacustre) had established their own dwellings on the piles.
