The timespan of this record makes it an invaluable resource for documenting the local impacts of long-term climate change.<br /><br />The records show significant year-to-year variability in the length of the ice-cover season, but there is a clear trend of fewer ice-cover days over time. Overall, the average number of days of ice cover on the Madison lakes has decreased by around 29-35 days over the past 150 years. Significantly, the longest ice seasons on record are all clustered in the first few years of the record, while most of the shortest seasons fall towards the end of the record.<br /><br />The impacts of reduced ice cover are ecologically significant for lakes and their aquatic species. Ice cover regulates lake temperatures, dissolved oxygen levels, light penetration, and many other ecological parameters that govern growth and reproduction of species and interspecies relationships. Because ice cover reduces wintertime evaporation, it helps to maintain a lake’s water level. A lack of ice cover means that winter winds can make contact with lake waters, disturbing fish nesting sites, and impacting the ways lakes stratify, or form layers of water ordered along a temperature gradient. No ice cover also means no snow cover, allowing sunlight to penetrate the water and increase its temperature. In turn, warmer water temperatures may make the Madison lakes more hospitable to non-native species. For example, University of Wisconsin lakes researcher Jim Kitchell has documented an increase in numbers of sea lampreys, an invasive pest and lake trout parasite, as Lake Superior’s waters warm." -ClimateWisconsin.org</p>MadTownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13912161131195556711noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3379394838039037363.post-91262479205443252932011-01-07T12:10:00.003-06:002011-01-07T12:16:55.963-06:00The Best Way to Spend an Afternoon<div style="text-align: center;"><style type="text/css">.flickr-photo { border: solid 2px #000000; }.flickr-yourcomment { }.flickr-frame { text-align: left; padding: 3px; }.flickr-caption { font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px; }</style></div><div style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-frame"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5242178934/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5082/5242178934_1d349f9a7e.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /><span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5242178934/">The Best Way to Spend an Afternoon</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/crisp_air/">jw_creations</a>.<br /><br /></span><style type="text/css">.flickr-photo { border: solid 2px #000000; }.flickr-yourcomment { }.flickr-frame { text-align: left; padding: 3px; }.flickr-caption { font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px; }</style><div style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-frame"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5242178836/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5162/5242178836_b89c354e6f.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /> <span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5242178836/">Foraging Waterfowl</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/crisp_air/">jw_creations</a>.</span></div> <p class="flickr-yourcomment"> </p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5242179370/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5245/5242179370_eb8bb91eec.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /><div class="flickr-frame"> <span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5242179370/">Remnant of Ancient Errosion</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/crisp_air/">jw_creations</a>.</span></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-yourcomment"> Devil's Lake State Park’s bluffs are part of the Baraboo Range, which scientists believe were formed 1.6 billion years ago, making them one of the most ancient rock outcrops in North America.<br /><br />These ancient hills are formed of quartzite rock, which consists of grains of sand tightly cemented together. According to geologists, the sand was deposited by rivers as they drained into shallow seas covering this area a billion years ago. As the sand accumulated, it first formed sandstone (a porous sedimentary rock) and then, under great heat and pressure, became quartzite (a non-porous metamorphic rock).<br /><br />Prior to the last Ice Age roughly 15,000 years ago, the ancient Wisconsin River flowed between these hills before being diverted to it's present location to the East by massive continental ice sheets. The resulting terminal moraines effectively dammed the river at the north and south ends, and formed the lake that resides here today.</p>MadTownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13912161131195556711noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3379394838039037363.post-48452481708409162002011-01-07T12:00:00.003-06:002011-01-07T12:12:31.187-06:00Stillness at Baxters Hollow<div style="text-align: center;"><style type="text/css">.flickr-photo { border: solid 2px #000000; }.flickr-yourcomment { }.flickr-frame { text-align: left; padding: 3px; }.flickr-caption { font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px; }</style></div><div style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-frame"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241580765/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5083/5241580765_07ed11467a.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /><span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241580765/">Stillness at Baxters Hollow</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/crisp_air/">jw_creations</a>.<br /><br /></span><div class="flickr-frame"><div style="text-align: center;"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241580979/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5289/5241580979_dfc9924ea6.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /></div> <span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241580979/">Otter Creek at Baxters Hollow</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/crisp_air/">jw_creations</a>.</span></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-yourcomment"> In March of 1995, The Nature Conservancy designated the Baraboo hills as a “Last Great Place,” one of only 75 outstanding ecosystems in the western hemisphere and today as you know, we can explore this great place at one of Wisconsin’s most popular state parks, Devil’s Lake. However there are some smaller tucked away areas just perfect for those of us looking to avoid the crowds and really feel alone with nature. One little known area is just west of Devil’s Lake State Park and is known as Baxter’s Hollow.<br /><br />Baxter’s Hollow is managed by the Nature Conservancy and is a dedicated State Natural area with one marginally maintained trail. This is not a public park as such, but a preserve. The trail is often muddy and is not meant for extensive public traffic. It is most often used by student groups studying the Wisconsin Environment.<br /><br />Baxter’s Hollow is notable for the large area of deep forest and the mountain-like Otter creek within. At Baxter’s Hollow there are still moments when you can stand and listen to nothing but the breeze rolling through the hollow and the occasional songs of the native birds. Baxter’s Hollow is your best chance to bypass the summer tourists and explore the quiet natural wonder of our beautiful state.</p>MadTownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13912161131195556711noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3379394838039037363.post-24166386815114154992011-01-07T11:44:00.007-06:002011-01-18T10:48:32.993-06:00Wisconsin Countryside<style type="text/css">.flickr-photo { border: solid 2px #000000; }.flickr-yourcomment { }.flickr-frame { text-align: left; padding: 3px; }.flickr-caption { font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px; }</style><div class="flickr-frame"><div style="text-align: center;"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5282662345/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5162/5282662345_7362830f85.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /><span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5282662345/">Wisconsin Countryside Panorama</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/crisp_air/">jw_creations</a>.</span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-frame"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5282662061/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5244/5282662061_4e07976553.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /><span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5282662061/">A Winters Flow</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/crisp_air/">jw_creations</a>.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:100%;">Encompassing more than 24,000 square miles in the states of Minnesota,<br />Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois, the Driftless Area is one of America’s unique<br />natural resource treasures.

The density of liquid water is determined by its temperature, and water is most dense at about 40 F.<br /><br />Why is that important? As winter sets in, lakes lose energy to the atmosphere, and water near the surface cools, becomes more dense, and sinks. Warmer, less dense water under the surface will rise to replace this surface water. When the entire lake reaches 40 F, the surface water cools further, dropping below 40 F. Because this water is now less dense than the surrounding water, it will stay on the top and continue to cool.<br /><br />Once the surface water falls to 32 F, it freezes. The freezing then spreads downward into the lake and the ice thickens. Unless the lake is very shallow, you will find liquid water below the ice. This deeper water is about 40 F; fortunately fish can live in this cold temperature.<br /><br />Freezing first occurs along the shoreline, where the water is shallow. Before ice can form on the surface, the entire water column must first reach 40 F, which is likely to first occur along the shoreline.</p>MadTownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13912161131195556711noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3379394838039037363.post-69478352232027266642010-12-09T15:56:00.007-06:002010-12-09T15:58:22.956-06:00Cooling Waters<style type="text/css">.flickr-photo { border: solid 2px #000000; }.flickr-yourcomment { }.flickr-frame { text-align: left; padding: 3px; }.flickr-caption { font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px; }</style><div style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-frame"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241173413/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5286/5241173413_b5bc8be090.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /><span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241173413/">Cooling Waters</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/crisp_air/">jw_creations</a>.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-yourcomment"> Part of my frequent documentation of Lake Mendota freezing over on my daily commute to work.</p><div style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-frame"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241769490/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5207/5241769490_899ce8da27.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /><span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241769490/">Olen Park Boat Launch Panorama</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/crisp_air/">jw_creations</a>.<br /><br /></span><div style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-frame"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241173799/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5203/5241173799_34c0baa304.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /> <span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241173799/">Before The Freeze</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/crisp_air/">jw_creations</a>.</span></div><br /></div>MadTownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13912161131195556711noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3379394838039037363.post-7424071975112982732010-12-09T15:54:00.002-06:002010-12-09T15:59:11.714-06:00November Supercell Passage<style type="text/css">.flickr-photo { border: solid 2px #000000; }.flickr-yourcomment { }.flickr-frame { text-align: left; padding: 3px; }.flickr-caption { font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px; }</style><div style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-frame"> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241167749/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5244/5241167749_8130769712.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /> <span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/crisp_air/5241167749/">November Supercell Passage</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/crisp_air/">jw_creations</a>.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;" class="flickr-yourcomment"> A photo from a late-November batch of supercell's which rolled over Southern Wisconsin on an unseasonably warm winter day.

About 26,000 years ago, the most recent of these glaciers, called the Laurentide Ice Sheet flowed southward through the Lake Superior and Lake Michigan regions and into Wisconsin. Although glaciers have probably covered this park several times, geologists recognize evidence here for only the most recent glaciation, the Wisconsin Glaciation. By about 10,000 years ago the ice sheet had melted back to the Lake Superior area.<br /><br />The terminal moraine at Pope Farm Park, just west of Madison - was formed as the glacier stalled, and built up this ridge in a conveyor-like method - transporting boulders and gravel to this location before slowly melting away towards Canada.<br /></div></div> <p class="flickr-yourcomment"> </p>MadTownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13912161131195556711noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3379394838039037363.post-68530466789734443202010-12-01T10:21:00.004-06:002010-12-01T10:21:46.200-06:00Ancient River Errosion<div><style type="text/css">.flickr-photo { border: solid 2px #000000;
