Ecological Restoration to Succeed
Riverside North Redevelopment Ecology Text for Report Steven I. Apfelbaum and Doug Mensing Applied Ecological Services, Inc. 17921 Smith Road, Brodhead, WI 53520 608.897.8641 ECOLOGICAL CONTEXT Glacial History, Landforms and Soils The site is located in the “Western Coulee and Ridges” Ecological Landscape of Wisconsin. The site is located within the “Driftless Area” – an area not covered by the most recent glacial advance, the Wisconsinan Glaciation. This unglaciated region has developed highly eroded landforms, including dramatic bluffs, steep slopes, and steep headwater streams. The Riverside Redevelopment Site is located at the confluence of three rivers (Mississippi, Black, and La Crosse), which are largely responsible for creating the region’s landforms. The 1919 Soil Survey of La Crosse County, Wisconsin mapped the entire site as “Peat,” indicative of the site’s previous wetland condition. The USDA/NRCS Web Soil Survey (2014) identifies the northern portion of the site as “Urban land, valley trains,” and the southern portion as “Algansee-Kalmarville complex, 0-3% slopes, frequently flooded” and water. As of the 1938 aerial photograph of the site, significant fill had already been placed on the northern portion of the site. This historical aerial photograph shows railroad tracks paralleling the river (along the current trail alignment) as well as an arcing track that looped to the east, crossing the La Crosse River adjacent to the existing Copeland Avenue Bridge. The site’s upland soils appear to be dominated by well-drained sands. The site’s riverbanks are sandy with peat substrates. This combination of unconsolidated mineral soils over organic soils provides an unstable environment, complicating development and safe access for human use. -

The procedure was applied to Navigation Pool No. 7 in the Upper Mississippi River (Dresbach, Minnesota) to determine the effect of this navigation pool on nutrient dynamics of the river. Water samples were collected from four sampling sites twice per month from March 12 to October 1, 1972. The pH, temperature, nitrate - 1 ) - 3 ) (N0 3 and phosphate (Po 4 were determined for each sample. Filtered water samples were inoculated with a predetermined quantity of Scenedesmus quadricauda and Chlorella vulgaris and a known amount of 14 • NaHC 03 Samples were incubated for 2 hours under controlled environ mental conditions. -
