Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest Water Quality Database
The Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest (CNNF) in northern Wisconsin contains numerous groundwater-dependent water resources that may be vulnerable to potential effects of land development, mining, and climate change. In order to monitor water quality over time, 138 of the lakes, streams, wetlands, spring ponds, springs, and wells were sampled in... -
Inventory and Analysis of Flowing Artesian Wells in Bayfield County, Wisconsin
This report presents a county-wide inventory of flowing artesian wells in Bayfield County. Flowing artesian wells are a remarkable resource of high-quality water that both community members and tourists value. This report provides baseline water quality data that are a valuable resource for future assessments. Data collection occurred in 2022. Includes... -
Hydrogeology of the sandy uplands of the Bayfield Peninsula, Wisconsin
The sandy uplands of the Bayfield Peninsula are primary contributors to regional groundwater recharge and provide baseflow to streams in the area. Few data exist, however, to characterize upland hydrogeology or its susceptibility to groundwater contamination. Here, data from two new cores and wells, one existing well, and a lake in the sandy uplands...-

Potential Effects of Climate Change on Stream Temperature in the Marengo River Headwaters
Cold-water trout habitat in Wisconsin is projected to substantially decrease as a result of climate change. The extent of habitat loss depends, in part, on groundwater discharge to streams, which can provide cool-water refuges for trout. Survey hydrogeologists used field measurements and models of groundwater flow and stream temperature to evaluate how...-

Characterization of Groundwater Resources in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, Wisconsin
Results of a comprehensive review and analysis of groundwater resources in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. The study was divided by location into four reports corresponding to the four main land units: Medford, Nicolet, Park Falls, and Washburn/Great Divide. Each report describes the results of the inventory, modeling, and analysis.-
