Abstract The treatment efficiency of two proprietary stormwater treatment devices was tested at a freeway site in an ultra-urban part of Milwaukee, Wis. One treatment device is categorized as a hydrodynamic settling device (HSD) that removes pollutants by sedimentation and flotation. The other treatment device is categorized as a stormwater filtration device (SFD) that removes pollutants by filtration and sedimentation. During runoff events, flow measurements were recorded and water-quality samples were collected at the inlet and outlet of each device. An efficiency ratio and summation of loads (SOL) calculation were used to estimate the treatment efficiency of each device. Most constituents showed a reduction in average concentration and total load leaving the device, but a few constituents, especially dissolved ones, showed an increase in concentration and load at the outlets. The efficiency ratios for the HSD tend to be higher than the SOLs. In contrast the efficiency ratios and SOLs are about the same for the SFD. 17. 18.

    1093- 1057. THE FOREST TREES 01:' WISCONSIN •r 1, A. Lapham (Vol. 4, Trans. Wis. State Agr. Soc, 1857.) That the great forest and Forest Trees of our country are worthy of much more attention, not only from the cultivator, but also from the artisan and even the statesman, is evident to every one who bos tows upon than a thought? and it is gratifying to every true and intelligent lover of his ountry, to know that the recent efforts made to direct public attention to their importance, to the importance of their preservation and to the necessity of providing for their restoration where they are already destroyed, have been to a considerable degree successful. We may hope to see the time when many of our farmers and landholders will dee" it a part of their duty to plant trees. Should this be done to any considerable extent their successors, at least, will have cause to honor and respect the for e thought that preserved and handed down to them, ir full share of this great source of national wealth. The dense forests have a marked effect upon the climate of the country in several ways. ley protect our houses and our cattle from the rigors of the north winds of winter, and from the fierceness of the burning sun of summer. They preserve the moist­ ure of the ground, and of the air? and render permanent and uni­ form the flow of water in springs, brocks ano rivers. By the fa1 1 of their leaves, branches and trunks they restore to : he soil tgbse elements of vegetable life and growth, that would without this natural process, soon become exhausted, leavii I e soil barren and unproductive.

Goodman Submitted to the Department of Urban Studies and Planning On May 18, 2011 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master in City Planning ABSTRACT This thesis provides a cash flow analysis of an aquaponics system growing tilapia, perch, and lettuce in a temperate climate utilizing data collected via a case study of an aquaponics operation in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Literature regarding the financial feasibility of aquaponics as a business is scant. This thesis determines that in temperate climates, tilapia and vegetable sales or, alternatively, yellow perch and vegetable sales are insufficient sources of revenue for this aquaponics system to offset regular costs when grown in small quantities and when operated as a stand-alone for-profit business.

MARVELOUS IN ACfflEVEMENT. lILWAUKEE, the metropolis of the State of Wisconsin, is a wonderful combination of all the conditions and elements that go to make a city alike great as an industrial and commercial center, healthful as a permanent abiding place, and attractive to those in search of recreation and pleasure. Endowed by nature with the choicest of situations, Milwaukee has, from time immemorial, been the delight of people of every class as a home center—from the red man who camped on the beautiful wooded bluffs overlooking the blue waters of grand old Lake Michigan to the the man of affairs of the twentieth century who looks out upon the same beautiful vista, but from palatial residences erected on the same bluffs. With the western march of civilization, early settlers were quick to discover in Milwaukee a site destined to become foremost among cities. Mar- quette visited the natives here in 1673. After him came trappers and explorers. Here Solomon Juneau, the fearless, tactful Indian trader, first established a village which needed only the start to thrive and grow at a marvelous rate.

MILWAUKEE : PUBLISHED BY RUFUS KING, 1848. PREFACE. IT is not claimed that tho present work is by any means a perfect one of ita kind. No doubt many omissions and frequent errors will b« noticed. The publisher has endeavored to make it as accurate and full as possible; but the extraordinary growth of the city ; tho rapid in­ crease of its population, the constant influx of new comers, the open­ ing of new establishments, the erection of new buildings and the com­ mencement of new enterprises, have interposed constant and increas­ ing obstacles to the attempt and forbid the expectation that the Direc­ tory is all that could be wished. It is, however, a beginning, and will pave the way for a more com­ plete and reliable volume next year. In preparing it for the press, the plan of the former Directory of Mr. McCaba has been generally followed, some of the errore in that work corrected and some omis­ sions supplied. With this brief explanation the Directory is submitted to the judgement of the public. If it shall prove useful to our own cit­ izens, and contribute, in any degree, to make Milwaukee better known abroad, the publisher will be entirely satisfied. SKETCH OF MILWAUKEE. The City of Milwaukee is advantageously located upon the Milwaukee and Menomonee Rivers, on the West shore of Lake Michigan, about 90 miles north of Chicago.

Schwartz This dissertation is an intensive phenological study in a temperate deciduous urban woodlot over six consecutive years (2007-2012). It explores three important topics related to spring and autumn phenology, as well as ground and remote sensing phenology. First, it examines key climatic factors influencing spring and autumn phenology by conducting phenological observations four days a week and recording daily microclimate measurements. Second, it investigates the differences in phenological responses between an urban woodlot and a rural forest by employing comparative basswood phenological data.

    Chapter 3: Affected Environment Chapter 3: Affected Environment In this chapter 3.1 Introduction 3.2 Physical Environment 3.3 Biological Environment 3.4 Land Use and Management Status 3.5 Socioeconomic Environment 3.6 Conclusion 3.1 Introduction This chapter describes the proposed Hackmatack NWR Study Area in southeast Wisconsin and northeast Illinois and its local and regional setting. The Study Area’s physical environment, habitats, species, and human environment are all described. This description provides a thorough overview of the Study Area’s current features so the effects of the proposal (establishing a new refuge) can be weighed within the larger context of its surroundings (The Greater Milwaukee and Chicago metropolitan areas). 3.2 Physical Environment The Hackmatack Study Area is located in portions of Walworth, Racine, and Kenosha Counties in Wisconsin and McHenry and Lake Counties in Illinois encompassing 350,000 acres (54 square miles). Its approximate boundary is defined by a 30-mile radius from the village of Richmond, Illinois on the state border. The Study Area lies approximately 50 miles from downtown Milwaukee and Chicago. Located 20 miles west of Lake Michigan, the Study Area’s varied landscape of lakes, streams, ridges, and valleys is intersected on the east by the Fox River. 3.2.1 Topography, Geology, and Soils The Study Area falls within the physiographic morainal section. The topography and soils are a result of glaciers advancing and retreating from 13,000 to 26,000 years ago. These glaciers formed the many “moraines” or ridges in the area, left behind “glacial meltwater” or lakes and marshes, created rivers that scoured out valleys, and changed lake levels and shorelines.

  • An Analysis of Environmental Organizations in Milwaukee Molly Farison 5/6/12
    An Analysis of Environmental Organizations in Milwaukee Molly Farison 5/6/12 Introduction When I first moved to Milwaukee in June 2011, I had no idea that I would get involved in such a vibrant community of environmental and social activism. While searching for a place to live, I found my housemate Kate Hanford on the Transition Milwaukee website. Kate had moved to Milwaukee two years earlier to be an intern at Growing Power, and she was subsequently hired as their director of production. She was living in Riverwest, an economically poor but culturally rich neighborhood in Milwaukee. While exploring the beautiful parks, rivers, and lakes in the area, I stumbled upon the Urban Ecology Center, where Transition Milwaukee holds their meetings. After a fun‐filled summer making friends with people involved in all three of these organizations, I began this project to gain a deeper understanding of the people I had met and the practices of these three key organizations. I spent Wednesday afternoons with children in Washington Park at the Urban Ecology Center, I worked Saturday mornings at Growing Power’s main farm and in the evening attended potlucks and parties with friends who worked there, and on Monday evenings I attended Transition Milwaukee hub meetings and worked on organizing their mess of data into something useful. The volunteer work I did balanced out my day job of electrical and computer engineering by providing a more creative and people‐oriented outlet, and I learned a lot about community from all the people who helped me with this project.
