About the noxubee river
The Noxubee River, which runs through Mississippi and Alabama, has a long history dating back to Native American settlements. It is approximately 230 miles long, with its source in the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway and its mouth in the Tombigbee River. The river's hydrology is affected by rainfall and the construction of several dams, including the Aberdeen Lock and Dam and the Aliceville Lock and Dam. These dams provide hydroelectric power, flood control, and irrigation to the surrounding agricultural areas. The river is also used for recreational purposes, including fishing, boating, and camping. Several parks and wildlife reserves are located along the Noxubee River, including the Noxubee National Wildlife Refuge, which provides habitat for migratory birds and other wildlife. The river plays an essential role in the economy and ecology of the region.
