  • Reconstruction of Glacial Lake Hind of Southwestern
    Journal of Paleolimnology 17: 9±21, 1997. 9 c 1997 Kluwer Academic Publishers. Printed in Belgium. Reconstruction of glacial Lake Hind in southwestern Manitoba, Canada C. S. Sun & J. T. Teller Department of Geological Sciences, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada R3T 2N2 Received 24 July 1995; accepted 21 January 1996 Abstract Glacial Lake Hind was a 4000 km2 ice-marginal lake which formed in southwestern Manitoba during the last deglaciation. It received meltwater from western Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and North Dakota via at least 10 channels, and discharged into glacial Lake Agassiz through the Pembina Spillway. During the early stage of deglaciation in southwestern Manitoba, part of the glacial Lake Hind basin was occupied by glacial Lake Souris which extended into the area from North Dakota. Sediments in the Lake Hind basin consist of deltaic gravels, lacustrine sand, and clayey silt. Much of the uppermost lacustrine sand in the central part of the basin has been reworked into aeolian dunes. No beaches have been recognized in the basin. Around the margins, clayey silt occurs up to a modern elevation of 457 m, and ¯uvio-deltaic gravels occur at 434±462 m. There are a total of 12 deltas, which can be divided into 3 groups based on elevation of their surfaces: (1) above 450 m along the eastern edge of the basin and in the narrow southern end; (2) between 450 and 442 m at the western edge of the basin; and (3) below 442 m. The earliest stage of glacial Lake Hind began shortly after 12 ka, as a small lake formed between the Souris and Red River lobes in southwestern Manitoba.

  • Artificial Drainage Report.Pdf
    HH3: Souris River Basin Artificial Drainage Impacts Review July 15, 2019 FINAL REPORT Submitted to the International Souris River Study Board by the HH3 Working Group Report prepared by Bob Harrison Executive Summary This project was undertaken as a portion of the Souris River Study. The governments of Canada and the United States asked the IJC to undertake studies evaluating the physical processes occurring within the Souris River basin which are thought to have contributed to recent flooding events. The public expressed a high interest in the issue of agricultural drainage impacts. Thus an “Artificial Drainage Impacts Review” was added to International Souris River Study Board’s (ISRSB) Work Plan to help address their questions and provide information to the public regarding wetland drainage. This report summarizes the current knowledge of artificial drainage in the Souris River basin. The study involved a review of drainage legislation and practices in the basin, the artificial drainage science, the extent of artificial drainage in the basin and the potential influence on transboundary flows Artificial drainage is undertaken to make way for increased or more efficient agricultural production by surface or/and subsurface drainage. Surface drainage moves excess water off fields naturally (i.e., runoff) or by constructed channels. The purpose of using surface drainage is to minimize crop damage from water ponding after a precipitation event, and to control runoff without causing erosion. Subsurface drainage is installed to remove groundwater from the root zone or from low-lying wet areas. Subsurface drainage is typically done through the use of buried pipe drains (e.g., tile drainage).
