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...

The 2016 groundwater flow model is a three-dimensional model using state-of-the-art representation of the hydrogeology of Dane County. This report describes the model, appendices provide data, and the user's manual provides basic instructions and recommendations for running the model.

The bulletin describes the state-of-the-art scientific tool that can be used to help make good decisions about high-capacity well placement and pumping, as well as land use in Wisconsin's Central Sands region. It can also be used to predict which wells and well locations would have the greatest impact on nearby lakes and streams. The user's manual...
