Three velocity gages in Sloughs (Bad River at the mouth, Bad River at Hwy 2, and Kakagon River

Three velocity gages in Sloughs (Bad River at the mouth, 04027655; Bad River at Hwy 2, 04027595; and Kakagon River are helping to understand how water moves through the sloughs relative to river floods, lake level fluctuations, and ice. Data are realtime and publicly available. The gages are in part funded by the Great Lakes Oil Spill Center of Excellence to aid in oil spill response planning along coastal wetlands. Locations and data are available at the USGS National Water Information System Mapper: https://maps.waterdata.usgs.gov/mapper/index.html
