The in­ fluence of the great "inland sea" gives it a climate of peculiar advantages for fruit and farm crops. The soil survey made by the State and Federal governments shows an average growing season of "about 140 to 145 days free from killing frosts," much longer than that enjoyed by many sections farther south. It has the same frostless period as Northern Iowa.

To that end, we are working with the States, Tribes, other Federal agencies and our many partners in the private sector to identify, prioritize and focus our efforts in a manner that is most complementary to their efforts, consistent with the mission of our agency, and within the funding resources available. At the very heart of our efforts is the desire to be transparent and accountable and, to that end, we present this Region 3 Annual Fisheries Accomplishment Report for Fiscal Year 2004. This report captures our commitments from the Region 3 Fisheries Program Operational Plan, Fiscal Years 2004 & 2005. This document cannot possibly capture the myriad of activities that are carried out by any one station in any one year, by all of the dedicated employees in the Fisheries Program, but, hopefully, it provides a clear indication of where our energy is focused.

  • Using Multiple Conceptual Models to Understand Transboundary
    Using Multiple Conceptual Models to Understand Transboundary Groundwater Flows in Red Cliff Reservation, WI By Yang Li A Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE (Geological Engineering) at the UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MADISON 2015 Abstract Interactions between surface water and groundwater play a crucial role in water resources management. Understanding recharge dynamics in the vicinity of surface water bodies has important implications for stream ecology. A comprehensive approach is required to quantify recharge, defined as the entry of water into the saturated zone. The objective of this study is to investigate the transboundbary water impacts on groundwater-fed streams in Red Cliff reservation in northern Wisconsin under different recharge scenarios. A modified Thornthwaite-Mather Soil-Water-Balance code (USGS, 2010) which takes spatially variable factors including climate, land cover and topography into consideration to estimate the spatially- variable recharge rate, is used in this study. The main objective of this study is to understand the probable extent of groundwater recharge areas that contribute to the streams of the Red Cliff Reservation. Stream baseflows and the water configuration can be estimated using the groundwater flow model developed using MODFLOW (Harbaugh, 2005; Harbaugh et al., 2000). Three groundwater models, forced by three conceptual models representing different assumptions about estimated recharge and aquifer hydrological properties, are calibrated through PEST (Doherty, 2010a, b) to obtain a plausible model with the best match between simulated observations (heads and stream flows) and corresponding field observations. Capture zones are then delineated by using backward transport of particles through numerical flow modeling with MODPATH (Pollock, 1994).

  • The Franciscan Mission to the Wisconsin Chippewa: the Evidence of Sermons
    The Franciscan Mission to the Wisconsin Chippewa: The Evidence of Sermons LAWRENCE T. MARTPN University of Akron In 1875-76 about a hundred Franciscan Friars came to North America as exiles from the persecutions of Catholics in the Prussian Kulterkampf and within three years they had taken up Indian mission work. In 1878 the bishop of LaCrosse, who then had charge of all of northern Wisconsin, invited them to undertake the mission to the Chippewa or Ojibwe people in the area under his responsibility. Two years later they extended their work to the Menomini in northeastern Wisconsin, and in 1884 they also took over the mission to the Ottawa at the northern extreme of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan (Habig 1958:148-9, 497). The area served by the Franciscans' mission to the Chippewa covered a large area, more or less the northern third of Wisconsin plus some of Minnesota. The Franciscans divided this large area into four mission districts: 1) The Lake Superior region, especially the area around Chequamegon Bay, which included La Pointe on Madeline Island, the Red Cliff reservation north of Bayfield and the Bad River reservation just east of Ashland. From here the Franciscans also regularly visited Lac du Flambeau, the easternmost outpost of their mission to the Chippewa. r 2) The Chippewa River Valley, from the Lac Courte Oreilles reservation down the river to Flambeaufarm, at the intersection of the Flambeau and Chippewa Rivers, a few miles north of the town of Chippewa Falls. 3) The St. Croix River valley, in Burnett and Polk counties.
