		For the historian "Maumee River" and "Miami of the Lake" are synonymous.
		The Tawa appellation was also used frequently by eighteenth century cartographers, which is evidenced by the designation "Tawa" appearing on the eastern bank of the Cuyahoga River on the map produced in 1755 by Lewis Evans, and by the "Taway" town located on the "Maumi" River on the map by John Fitch dated 1785.
		The appellation "Tawa" was actually only an abbreviation or simplification of the name Ottawa, which may be seen by this breakdown of the word: O T - T A W A, and was caused by the peculiar manner in which the Indians pronounced the name giving the greatest emphasis to the last syllables.

	Proceedings of the second international symposium on the management of large rivers for fisheries: Volume I
		River fisheries are usually based on a large number of species and a wide range of fishing gears.
		The dynamic nature of river ecosystems in both space and time has long been known to have a major influence upon river fisheries and is well documented in the scientific literature.
		River fisheries scientists need to look beyond the narrow confines of the fisheries sector and in particular to focus on environmental, ecosystem and social management, including viewing fisheries within mixed livelihoods settings, as key requirements in their art.

	Woes of the displaced
		The physical dimensions of the river are unrecognisable even to those who have lived on its banks for generations.
		For most villages here, the river is the only source of drinking water and the intake of this contaminated water has resulted in an increase in intestinal infections like dysentery and diarrhoea and skin infections such as scabies and boils.
		Nowhere are the consequences of the dam more plain than in the lower reaches of the river, especially at the point where it enters Gujarat from Maharashtra.

		Not if you have lived on the banks of the river, not if you have seen the river as a living entity, as much a part of the community on its banks as any other person.
		Downstream, the river started behaving strangely as water was sometimes held back by the dam, sometimes released all at once, as the turbines were run for generating electricity.
		While we may be able to take the death of one river, we would do well to remember that sooner or later the ones add to tens and then to hundreds and then all of them.
