of the Fisheries Management District 4 staff who assisted with this project by conducting background research, field work, fish identification, map measurements, writing and editing. One person in particular, Laurie Peach, is deserving of a special acknowledgment for keeping this project moving forward when some staff were diverted to other commitments. Without everyone’s help and information provided by cooperating agencies this plan would not be possible. Thank you. Devona Weirich 4 Executive Summary The Cuivre River is a low gradient, seventh order river located in northeast Missouri. It originates in Audrain and Pike counties and flows south-eastward through Pike, Montgomery, Lincoln, Warren and St. Charles counties to its confluence with the Mississippi River near Winfield, Missouri. Its maJor tributaries are the West Fork Cuivre River and the North Fork Cuivre River. The entire watershed is 1,235 square miles. The average annual discharge of Cuivre River at the Troy gage station for its 61-year period of record is 650 cubic feet per second. One percent of the watershed is in public ownership. There is one state park, five Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) lake or wildlife areas and three MDC stream fishing accesses. Approximately 23% of the watershed is forested and 77% is

Torgashov Mao Chen Ge © 2016 Jeremiah Chukwunonso Obi All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Automated electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) supported with multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW) and boring data were used to map karst related features in Missouri in order to understand karst processes better in Missouri. Previous works on karst in Missouri were mostly surficial mapping of bedrock outcrops and joints, which are not enough to define the internal structure of karst system, since most critical processes in karst occur underground.

Totally awesome!!.......... These few words most accurately describe the “special” JAKES event the Rhine Valley Chapter recently facilitated. You will notice that I used the word “facilitated” (that was deliberate) as this event was a cooperative effort between the Rhine Valley Chapter (Hermann) and the Oak Creek Whitetail Ranch (Bland, Missouri). A very significant portion of the effort required to achieve this success came from Donald and Angi Hill, owners of Oak Creek Ranch as well as that of their team of guides. First of all, let me tell you that the Rhine Valley Chapter and the Oak Creek Ranch originally became allies in promoting the JAKES program when, two years ago, Donald and Angi learned of the Rhine Valley Chapter JAKES event and brought Don Viehmann, Rhine Valley Chapter President, helping one of the young shooters at the “shot gun/still target” class. their two sons, Cody and Zack to that event. As a result of the great time they had there with the Rhine Valley folks that day, they have looked for numerous ways in Now, having given you that back ground let me tell you why this event was so which to help the Rhine Valley Chapter JAKES program over the past several “totally awesome.” years. Having this event at Oak Creek Ranch ( a private hunting ranch specializing in, As a result of these positive experiences with the Rhine Valley JAKES program, among other species, “monster “ Canadian whitetail bucks ) creates some unique Donald and Angi decided they wanted to host a JAKES event at their ranch and in opportunities for a JAKES event that any NWTF chapter could normally only order to obtain the very best results for their efforts, who better to turn to then the dream about.

The Wisconsin flooding resulted from two separate events, totaling more than 10 inches of rain over most of the southern third of the state. This resulted in record flooding for more than half of the All of the descriptive text is written in forecast points across southeastern Wisconsin.

The high backwater on adjacent tributaries resulted in significant flooding along the North River at Palmyra, MO, the Cuivre River at Old Monroe, MO, the Illinois River at LaGrange, Meredosia, Valley City, and Hardin, IL, and the Meramec River at Arnold, MO.
