   Their efforts will include assessing whether phosphorus and other nutrients delivered by runoff pollution, non-native species, lakeshore development, and/or pathogens are stressing lakes, and to what degree, according to Tim Asplund, DNR limnologist.

   Several lakes already have ongoing monitoring through citizen monitoring or other efforts, and that information will be used to supplement the national lakes survey data and provide background data for interpretation, Asplund says.

   Climate change might be one more threat to Wisconsin's lakes and groundwater, according to Tim Asplund, water resources management specialist with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.Asplund will address "Potential Impacts of Climate Change and Increasing Water Demands on Wisconsin's Inland Lakes, Streams and Groundwater" at 6 p.m. Wednesday, August 8, at the Northern Great Lakes Visitor Center, located at the intersection of County Hwy G and U.S. Hwy 2, two miles west of Ashland.The lecture is free.Asplund says many lakes and streams in Northern Wisconsin are at historic low water levels.Although fluctuating water levels are normal for certain types of lakes, global climate change may be altering these normal cycles, he says.He adds that shifting land use patterns and increased groundwater pumping also interfere with the water cycle, increasing surface runoff and lowering water tables.He will use case studies from lakes in northwestern Wisconsin and the Central Sands region to illustrate what is known and what needs further study about how these factors affect Wisconsin's lakes, streams and groundwater.
