Yahara Lakes 101
Name:
Yahara Lakes 101
Date:
October 9, 2014
Time:
7:30 AM - 9:00 AM CDT
Event Description:
Join us on Thursday, October 9, to learn from Dr. Ken Bradbury about a new Dane County groundwater flow model that demonstrates how groundwater and surface water are directly connected, and why they should be considered a single resource. The new model helps us understand these connections by quantifying the exchange that occurs between groundwater and surface water, in addition to showing where groundwater comes from, and where it will go. Dr. Bradbury will also describe the geology and hydrology of the Madison area, explain how groundwater discharges to lakes, springs, streams, and wetlands, and demonstrate how the new model can help us make better informed water management decisions.
Kenneth Bradbury received his PhD in Geology from the UW-Madison in 1982, and has been a research hydrogeologist/professor with the Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey, University of Wisconsin-Extension, since that time. He serves as Assistant Director for Science at the Survey, and Program Leader for water and environmental programs.
