  • Apostle Islands National Lakehore Geologic Resources Inventory
    Geologic Resources Inventory Scoping Summary Apostle Islands National Lakeshore Geologic Resources Division Prepared by Trista L. Thornberry-Ehrlich National Park Service August 7, 2010 US Department of the Interior The Geologic Resources Inventory (GRI) provides each of 270 identified natural area National Park System units with a geologic scoping meeting and summary (this document), a digital geologic map, and a geologic resources inventory report. The purpose of scoping is to identify geologic mapping coverage and needs, distinctive geologic processes and features, resource management issues, and monitoring and research needs. Geologic scoping meetings generate an evaluation of the adequacy of existing geologic maps for resource management, provide an opportunity to discuss park-specific geologic management issues, and if possible include a site visit with local experts. The National Park Service held a GRI scoping meeting for Apostle Islands National Lakeshore on July 20-21, 2010 both out in the field on a boating site visit from Bayfield, Wisconsin, and at the headquarters building for the Great Lakes Network in Ashland, Wisconsin. Jim Chappell (Colorado State University [CSU]) facilitated the discussion of map coverage and Bruce Heise (NPS-GRD) led the discussion regarding geologic processes and features at the park. Dick Ojakangas from the University of Minnesota at Duluth and Laurel Woodruff from the U.S. Geological Survey presented brief geologic overviews of the park and surrounding area. Participants at the meeting included NPS staff from the park and Geologic Resources Division; geologists from the University of Minnesota at Duluth, Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey, and U.S. Geological Survey; and cooperators from Colorado State University (see table 2).

On this trip we made five stops along our journey where we noted various geomorphic features and landscapes of the Lake Superior region. We reached the south coast of Lake Superior in Bayfield, Wisconsin at around 10:00am. Here we made our first stop which included the entire boat trip we took which navigated through the various islands in the Apostle Island National Lakeshore. Our second stop was a beach on the shore of Lake Superior where we noted active anthropogenic and environmental changes to a shoreline. Stop three was at the visitor center for the Apostle Island National Lakeshore where we heard a short talk by the resident park ranger as he explained some of the unique features of the islands and why they should be protected. After that we proceeded to our fourth stop which was at the Northern Great Lakes Visitor Center. Here we learned, through various displays and videos, how the region had been impacted by various events over time. Finally our fifth stop was at the point where the Montreal River emptied into Lake Superior (Figure 1).

    THE LIFE HISTORY AND TROPHIC RELATIONSHIP OF THE NINESPINE STICKLEBACK, PUNGITIUS PUNGITIUS, IN THE APOSTLE ISLANDS AREA OF LAKE SUPERIOR1 BERNARD L. GRISWOLD2 AND LLOYD L. SMITH, JR.3 ABSTRACT The ninespine stickleback is an important food of juvenile lake trout in the Apostle Islands area. It is the most numerous fish of the area and is distributed in deep waters during the winter and in shallow waters during the summer. Females grow fastel than males. reaching an average total length of 80 mm at age 5. Males live to age 3 and attain an average length of hh mm. Annulus formation on otoliths is complete by mid-July. Seasonal growth is more than half complete by early August: growth of mature females ·is delayed until after spawning. Both sexes mature over a period of 3 yr. Spawning occurs from mid-June to late July. Males apparently do not live as long as females. possibly because of a post-spawning mor­ tality. Egg number is a linear function of fish length. although this relationship is different for fish from two separate areas. Environmental differences between these areas. which may affect spawning time. possibly cause the differences in fecundity. Significant quantities of maturing eggs atrophy just prior to spawning. a phenomenon which changes the fecundity relationship. Sticklebacks eat a variety of invertebrates. particularly the crustaceans Mrsis re!icra and Pontoporeia alfinis. Food eaten by the stickleback and slimy sculpin is similar. bill the adaptability of both species tends to eliminate serious competition. The lake trout is the only serious predator of stickleback.

  • Stockton Island
    National Park Service Apostle Islands U.S. Department of the Interior Apostle Islands National Lakeshore Wisconsin Stockton Island Tracks in the Sand What would the Apostle Islands be without sand? They sit on a foundation of billion year old sandstone. Sand is a major component of the “till” left behind when the glaciers melted 10,000 years ago. Today, wind and waves sculpt exposed shorelines and carry sand grains to protected shores to form beaches. No island is blessed with more spectacular and diverse sandy areas than Stockton. The 10,054 acre island features sand beaches at Quarry Bay, Presque Isle Bay, and Julian Bay. The bridge of sand connecting Presque Isle Point to the rest of Stockton Island is an outstanding example of a geologic feature called a “tombolo”. The tombolo is home to a variety of plant communities (bogs, dunes, lagoons, savannahs, and pine forests), the park’s largest campgound, and the “singing sands” of Julian Bay. People feel called to beaches everywhere, but at Julian Bay, where the “singing” sand squeaks underfoot, the call can actually be heard. Bearprints Bear tracks on the beach have become a common and Quarry Bay. “Skar’s” campground visits in sight on Stockton Island.

By choosing the history of the Apostle Islands for a dissertation topic, I even added kayaking and sailing to my list of research activities. There were many more hours spent in libraries, but those weren’t quite as memorable. All graduate students should have topics like this one. As I cast about for a dissertation topic, I knew that I wanted a place-based subject that met two requirements: It needed to be about a place to which I had a personal connection, and it needed to apply to a current, ongoing policy question or environmental issue.
