	Neuse River Stratification
		This condition was caused by the decay of excessive algal blooms in the river (a process that consumes oxygen) combined with the presence of stratification (a layer of fresher, less dense water overlying saltier, denser water) that isolated the lower part of the water column and restricted the replenishment of oxygen from the atmosphere.
		The stratification of the Neuse River is a function of several physical variables which include up-river fresh-water discharge and duration of weak wind periods.
		River discharge: Water with salinity of 10 PSU is discharged at 100

	Neuse River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is formed by the confluence of the Flat and Eno Rivers prior to its entering the artificial Falls Lake reservoir in northern Durham County.
		Typical of rivers in the Coastal Plain of North Carolina, the Neuse enters a basin of intermittent bottomland swamp on its journey towards its outlet.
		The dinoflagellate Pfiesteria Piscicida[2][3][4] is present in the river, and is affected by nutrient levels in the river.

	American Rivers:
		Neuse River, NC The Quaker Neck Dam was built in 1952 in order to provide cooling water for a steam generating plant.
		Water quality degradation, alteration or destruction of estuarine habitats, alteration of river flows, commercial and recreational over-fishing, and physical obstructions, such as dams, are all factors thought to have contributed to the decline of the fish populations.
		The dramatic decline in catches of American shad on the Neuse River-which fell from 700,000 pounds prior to the construction of Quaker Neck Dam to 25,000 pounds in 1996-clearly demonstrates the magnitude of the dam's impact on the economy of North Carolina.

	1993 Neuse River Basinwide Water Quality Plan Executive Summary
		The Neuse Basinwide Water Quality Management Plan was approved by the NC Environmental Management Commission on February 11, 1993 to be used as a guide by the NC Division of Water Quality in carrying out its Water Quality Program duties and responsibilities in the Neuse River Basin.
		The Neuse River originates northwest of Durham in the northern Piedmont region of North Carolina and then flows southeasterly for over 200 miles past the cities of Raleigh, Smithfield, Goldsboro, Kinston and New Bern to the tidal waters of Pamlico Sound.
		Algal blooms resulting from excessive nutrient loading (eutrophication) have occurred regularly in the lower Neuse River between New Bern and Minnesott Beach and in the upper reaches of Falls Lake, and have been observed in several other freshwater lakes throughout the basin, six of which are in the Contentnea Creek subbasin.

	Nutrient Imports To The Cape Fear And Neuse River Basins In Animal Feeds (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The Neuse River has been designated as Nutrient Sensitive Waters (NC D.E.M., 1996a), whereas the Cape Fear River, owing to its high turbidity, is not considered nutrient sensitive, except in the lower portions of its estuary (NC D.E.M., 1996b).
		Animal feed used in the Cape Fear River basin in 1995 incorporated almost 100,000 metric tons of nitrogen and 33,000 metric tons of phosphorus, of which over 90% was imported from outside the basin, or approximately 92,000 and 32,000 metric tons of nitrogen and phosphorus, respectively (Table 2).
		Essentially all the nutrients excreted by swine and poultry in the Cape Fear River basin were imported, and a large majority of the nutrients excreted by animals in the Neuse River basin were imported (Table 2).

		The Neuse River followed this fault line and, over time, cut its course through layers of sediment deposited by shallow seas that had earlier covered the coastal plain.
		A portion of the river took a bend against its bank and the water's erosive action slowly carved Cliffs of the Neuse.
		Land on the south side of the river was donated by Weil and other individuals through the Wayne Foundation and the park was established in 1945.

		The right channel is a slough that is the remains of the old river channel—it is fairly well silted in and is a dead end (if you know what to look for, you can identify where the channel used to curve to the right immediately downstream from the houses on the right bank).
		The Neuse River Cut-Off and the main river channel form a very large island, most of which is part of an ATV park.
