UNDERSTANDING THE HYDROLOGY OF WISC/L. SUPERIOR W'SHED

A very interesting document about the Lake Superor watershed, as demonstrated by a portion of this watershed in Wisconsin:

Overview:

The Lake Superior Basin Partner Team developed a watershed
health strategy aimed at slowing the flow in the Lake
Superior Basin. The focus of the strategy was to develop
a model watershed management guidance that would be
promoted across the entire basin. To aid in developing
the guidance, the group selected a pilot area from the
Wisconsin portion of the basin to try out the approach,
determine the best information sources, and identify
important features that may be common throughout the
basin, as well as assessing the hydrologic condition of
the pilot area. The pilot report, Assessing the Hydrologic
Condition of the Marengo River Watershed, outlines the
steps taken to assess the hydrologic condition of the
pilot area, provides information about the hydrologic
condition of the pilot area, and companions this Guide
to Understanding the Hydrologic Condition of Wisconsin’s
Lake Superior Watersheds.
