	Seneca River
		The deployment of the robotic buoys (two) in the Seneca River in 2001 (above the CUT and in Baldwinsville) is intended to demonstrate impacts of the invader on the river.
		Salinity stratification was much stronger in the river before closure of the soda ash/chlor-alkali plant on Onondaga Lake, associated with the higher salinity of Onondaga Lake, which was caused by the greater loading of ionic waste from the operating facility.
		The oxygen depletion in the lower stratified layer of the river (contains Onondaga Lake outflow) is attributable to its isolation from the oxygen sources of reaeration (input from the air) and photosynthesis (because of inadequate light), combined with the continued exertion of oxygen consuming processes (e.g., plankton respiration).

	Seneca Falls (village), New York - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The village was named after a 40-foot waterfall on the Seneca River which drains Keuka Lake, Seneca and Cayuga Lakes of the Finger Lakes.
		The river has been canalized for navigation, to connect Seneca and Cayuga Lakes with the Erie Canal, bypassing the falls.
		By the mid 19th Century, Seneca Falls was the third largest flour milling center in the world, after Rochester and Oswego.

	Whitford's History of New York Canals. Chapter X, The Baldwinsville Canal and the Seneca River Towing-Path.
		At the place which we now know as Baldwinsville the Seneca river was interrupted by a fall, to overcome which necessitated an independent canal, but the company never performed any work beyond Oneida lake, and a settler, named Jonas C. Baldwin, undertook and accomplished privately what the company had planned at this point.
		The Legislature in 1836 also authorized the canal commissioners to examine the Oneida and Seneca rivers and to report on the practicability of steamboat channels four and one-half feet deep with a base of sixty feet, but, as the law contained no provision to pay for the work, the examinations were not made.
		In 1854 an act (chapter 333) placed the Baldwinsville canal and the Seneca river improvement under the control of the canal board and under the same regulations in regard to tolls, superintendence and repairs as the other canals of the state.

	Chronicles of Oklahoma
		SENECA: The name Seneca is derived from the Anglicized form of the Dutch enunciation of the Mohegan rendition of the Iroquoian ethnic appellative Oneida, or, strictly, Oneniute a ka, meaning "people of the standing or projecting rock or stone." Their language stock is Iroquoian.
		The Senecas retained this land until 1867 when the United States, in order to relocate Eastern tribes residing in Kansas, by treaty, gave to the Wyandot tribes the northern half of the Seneca reservation and to the Peoria tribes the northern half of the mixed Seneca and Shawnee reservation.
		The Shawnee joined the Seneca in acceding to the treaty of 1817 and were granted three tracts of land; at Wapaghkonetta, 10 miles square; on Hog Creek, 25 square miles adjacent to the aforementioned tract; and at Lewiston, 48 square miles—to be shared with the Seneca living there.

		The decreases in phytoplankton biomass in the river downstream of the lake are demonstrated to be consistent with grazing of the resident zebra mussel population.
		The test system is a short (2.3 km) phytoplankton-rich section of the Seneca River, NY, that is believed to represent an upper bound of the impact of this exotic invader on oxygen resources because of the unusually high population densities and limited turbulent mixing that prevail.
		In the channel of the Seneca River upstream of the confluence, a "salt wedge" exists, with relatively salty lake water intruding upstream from the confluence along the channel bottom.

	CLEARWATERS: Water quality signatures and the zebra mussel invasion
		The Seneca River, both upstream and downstream of Cross Lake (Figure 1), was colonized by 1991.
		Major shifts in water quality reported for the Seneca River in 1993 were attributed to the effects of filter feeding, excretion, and respiration of this invader (Effler and others 1996).
		Changes in water quality characteristics of the Seneca River downstream of Cross Lake since the early 1990s and the spatial structure imparted (Figures 2 and 3) are likely a result of the zebra mussel invasion.
