Variability of hydraulic conductivity in sandy till: True variation versus method
The sandy till deposited by the Green Bay Lobe in Wisconsin is included in the Horicon Formation, a lithostratigraphic term that implies that certain properties of the unit can be recognized...
Describing Connected Fracture Flow with Pressure Waves – Oscillating Flow Interference Testing
The state of Wisconsin is blessed with abundant groundwater resources resulting from the thick, high-porosity and high-permeability sedimentary aquifers that underlie the state, as well as the humid climate it experiences.
Using the New Rome Formation as a Geologic Weighing Lysimeter for Water Management in Wisconsin’s Sand Plain
This project tested the concept of using geologic weighing lysimeters (GWLs) to estimate components of the water balance in parts of Wisconsin’s central sand plain where the New Rome Formation (NRF), a regional aquitard, occurs.
Subsurface Fate and Transport of Cryptosporidium in Soils of Wisconsin’s Carbonate Aquifer Region
Cryptosporidium parvum is a waterborne pathogen that has been demonstrated to have a significant reservoir in cattle manure. As agriculture in Wisconsin is famous for its dairy industry, there are approximately 1.3 million dairy cows in Wisconsin in addition to about 250,000 beef cattle.
Knowledge Development for Groundwater Withdrawal Management Around the Little Plover River, Portage County, Wisconsin
