Hydrologic considerations associated with dredging spring ponds in Wisconsin Hydrologic considerations associated with dredging spring ponds in Wisconsin
Spring ponds (small spring-fed bodies of water) are natural features of some glaciated areas and have a continuous flow of ground water entering through their bottoms and exiting through surface outlets. Dredging has been used to restore ponds that have been filled in part or totally by sediment. The purpose of the study was to determine the hydrology of selected spring ponds and the...

Demographic features of a lapland longspur population near Barrow, Alaska Demographic features of a lapland longspur population near Barrow, Alaska
Breeding density, clutch size, hatching and fledging success, and survival of adult Lapland Longspurs (Calcarius lapponicus) were monitored over a 7-year period near the Naval Arctic Research Laboratory, Barrow, Alaska. Nesting begins as soon as the tundra starts to clear of snow and appears to be timed so that the young of the year reach independence before the end of adult insect...

Hydrogeology of a drift-filled bedrock valley near Lino Lakes, Anoka County, Minnesota Hydrogeology of a drift-filled bedrock valley near Lino Lakes, Anoka County, Minnesota
The bedrock surface of east-central Minnesota is dissected by an intricate network of valleys. Outside the bedrock valley at site B, 3 mi (4. 8 km) from site A, 100 ft (30 m) of drift overlies the bedrock surface. Observation wells were installed at the two sites to determine the vertical ground-water movement between the various aquifer units and the lateral movement between the two...
