Tables
9.1    Light attenuation k values at Cape fear River and Estuary station one week
            after Hurricane Bonnie, compared with long-term values
9.2    Comparison of post-Hurricane Bonnie biochemical oxygen demand (mg/L) with long-term
            (1996-1999) averages at stations in the Cape Fear, Black, and Northeast Cape fear Rivers
9.3    Maximum nutrient concentrations recorded at Northeast Cape Fear and Black river stations after Bonnie
9.4    Comparison of long-term (1995-1999) geometric mean fecal coliform bacterial counts with counts after Bonnie
9.5    Post-Hurricane Bonnie drainage from an underdeveloped coastal plain watershed compared with a coastal
            plain watershed containing extensive concentrated animal operations
9.6    Total infaunal abundance at four Cape Fear Estuary stations, before and after Bonnie

Figures
9.1    Summer-fall dissolved oxygen levels at four estuarine stations
9.2    Daily surface dissolved oxygen concentrations at NCF117 September 11-28, 1998
9.3    Monthly dissolved oxygen concentrations in the three main channels of the Cape Fear River system
