The Wisconsin Board of Soil and Water Conservation Districts (BSWCD) has provided services to the Red Clay Project in two program areas: the information-education program and the soil and water conservation district ...

Data collected in this investigation outlines the mineralogical character and range of mechanical behavior of the red clay and establishes the Little Balsam drainage as representative of many of the geologic and engineering ...

Vegetation cover, and related factors such as litter and organic content of soil, is known to be important in controlling and/or reducing erosion rates (1). Other fac­tors such as slope, soil particle size, soil ...

The sedimentation and water quality characteristics of seven Northwestern Wisconsin Lake Superior tributary streams are presented. A large portion of the drainage basins of these streams is located in the Valder's red ...

The effects of the erosion of red clay deposits along the northwestern Wisconsin shoreline area on orthophosphate inputs into Lake Superior was in­vestigated. Using clay soil and river particulate samples, exchange ...

Vegetation cover and related factors such as litter and organic content of soil, is known to be important in controlling and/or reducing erosion rates (Meeuwig 1971). Other factors such as slope, soil particle size, ...

The central emphasis of this .study is to identify major vegetational compo­nents of the Little Balsam and Skunk Creek watersheds and to relate this cov­er to the erosion of the red clay soils. The examination of the ...

Red clay erosion in southwestern Lake Superior has been a natural process along shorelines and in tributary streams and rivers since decline of lake levels following the Pleistocene period. Exposure of the unconsolidated ...

This project is concerned with expansion of the sparse information currently available pertaining to the chemical effects of red clay erosion on western Lake Superior and certain of its tributary streams. A major part of ...
