LAKE KOSHKONONG WETLAND ASSOCIATION: Rock River at Koshkonong Floodplain Forests

Purpose

The Lake Koshkonong Wetland Association will conduct a study that will describe correlations between historic and present lake water levels with the growth rates of Floodplain trees in wetlands adjacent to lake Koshkonong and the Rock River. This study will also illustrate the current and proposed hydologic conditions in relation to rooting structures and surface elevations within these forest communities. A full description of project deliverables is described in the grant application, which is a part of this contract.
