Yahara chain (a group of four lakes) in Wisconsin, USA, to some load reduction plans. The authors expected that the water quality enhancement should be in balance with the managements in all the chain. The parameters used in this research were: 29-33 years of data for P inputs, outputs, initial concentrations for each lake and the activity of zooplankton (Daphnia pulicaria) only in for the two upper lakes (Lake Mendota and Lake Monona). The study site included four lakes in the Yahara chain: Mendota
great, but these five best fishing states need to be on your list of places to visit.

I visited Yellowstone Lake State Park in the middle of July in 2007 in Blanchardville, Wisconsin. Overall, the campground was run very well, and our time there was relaxing and enjoyable. There was much to do, and everything was within reach although the campground was boomingly successful. Yellowstone Lake State Park is near the Illinois-Wisconsin border and is located in the western part of Wisconsin. The drive from Chicago was quite boring because there are no sights to see except corn, cows
dry, this is why we need to learn how to conserve water everyday. Here are two places in the World that are having big drought problems and are at risk of depleting all of their fresh water due to the excess digging into their aquifers. Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA and Sana’a, the capital of Yemen, which is located in the Middle East; both are the scarcest regions of the world. Both regions are at risk of losing all of their fresh water...
The Great Lakes Tribes The Indians were the first inhabitants of the Great lakes region. They were there tens for tens of thousands of years before the first settlers from Europe came. The European settlers were very curious about the Indians. The Indians lived a very different life than the Europeans. The Indians lived off the land. They farmed, hunted for food, gathered berries, and gathered water from the nearby stream. The Great Lake Tribes are not only in the United States but some are located

The Bald Eagle as an Endangered Species The bald eagle is the most well known endangered species because it is the nation's symbol. It is suppose to stand for freedom and the American way, but if we allow the bald eagle to become extinct how can we let something that doesn't exist anymore stand for freedom and the American way. Being the symbol of the nation, the bald eagle was put on the endangered species list faster than most species. When the bald eagle reached its low point in the 1960's
habitat and for a lake itself. Aquatic habitat provides living space for not only fish but also for many aquatic insects. These insects then in turn provide fish and other species of animals with food (“Native” par. 4). This vegetation also provides much cover for fish. The aquatic plants provide a great source of food supply and act as a nursery for young fish (“Native” par. 5). Vegetation serves many purposes in fish habitat; besides keeping fish safe. It also helps keep the lakes clean. Aquatic
The Connecticut River was formed by the WIsconsin Glacier. North America and Africa moved apart. The rifts are located on lowlands in Connecticut. Large amounts of rain would run off land higher than the valley. Also, that could cause flooding and erosion deposits sediment into the valley. Plate tectonics shift to raise the land for erosion to wear down. Connecticut was very close to the equator. Plate tectonics shifted and dug a huge hole. The Wisconsin Glacier covered our entire state including

Long Island Sound was formed by a glacier. The glacier reached
Wisconsin is a state rich with culture, with each and every culture celebrated. One of the most important cultures within Wisconsin is the Native American culture. This state was even named using the Ojibwe language. “Wishkongsing” is the Ojibwe name for the Wisconsin River and also where the name of our great state came from. There are several tribes present in Wisconsin besides the Ojibwe: the Menominee, Ho-Chunk, and Potawatomi tribes. The Menominee, or “wild rice people,” are the original inhabitants
One long summer weekend, my grandmother and grandfather took our entire family on a vacation to Wisconsin Dells. With 24 people sleeping underneath the large, green-shingled, and log cabin roof arguments were bound to transpire. Along with arguing, we would run out of pizza, and someone always seemed to bang his or her head or fall. While no major injuries ever occurred or at the Dells, our idiotic jokes showed the true love and meaning of family. Besides this summer trip, the only time the entire
When I was younger, I would go to my lake house in southern Wisconsin every weekend. It was a place where my entire family would go and spend time together. For me it was a place that could go and enjoy the outdoors. When I go to my cabin I try to leave everything at home behind. Nothing beats a long day out on the water and then having a cookout on the beach. We would always spend a big part of the summer down on the beach. We own two pontoons, two small fishing boats, and a speed boat. My dad would

mining industry suddenly began viewing taconite as a significant and valuable resource. A lot of people don’t exactly know what taconite is or what it’s used for. Taconite is a low-grade magnetic iron ore that is used to make steel (Iron Mining in the Lake Superior Basin.). Geologists say about 20% of the nation’s remaining iron is all buried in the Gogebic Range (Ron.). There will be a lot of “phases” or steps just to mine all of the taconite located in the Northland. Phase one of the site will be
The First Inhabitants of the Great Lakes Region in North America As archeological discoveries of bone fragments and fossils continue to support the existence of homo-sapiens in North America prior to the arrival of Indo-European explorers in the 15th century, this paper will attempt to explain chronologically, which Native American inhabitants lived or migrated throughout what is known today as the Great Lakes Region. This region includes lakes Superior, Michigan, Huron, Ontario, & Erie as
Water pollution in Wisconsin’s lakes and rivers is an important issue to recognize. My names is Megan Snyder, I attend Cardinal Heights Upper Middle School as an eighth grader. This letter is one way our social studies class can have practice at being an active citizen within our community. In this letter, I’m suggesting a new, small idea to help decrease the amounts of pollution in Wisconsin’s lakes and rivers. Obviously, pollution has increased based on the tasks, we as humans do. Focusing in
Boats and motorized watercraft are great for a fun day on the lake, but how fun are they for the diverse ecosystems living just beneath the hull of your boat? Boat exhaust and small traces of gasoline and oil are emitted into the waters when motorized watercraft are running. Boats have been shown to affect water clarity and can be a source of algal growth in aquatic ecosystems. The toxins emitted from boats can add chemicals to the water. Certain amounts of the fuel that is in motors is discharged
