Mapping Carbonate Bedrock Surfaces in Glaciated Landscapes
Wisconsin, USA Calumet County
Flow Characteristics of fractured carbonate Aquifers • Dense and ubiquitous fracture network – little surface runoff – water easily infiltrates to subsurface • Recharge – exceedingly rapid – carries surface contaminants to the water table • Flow within the aquifer occurs primarily along bedding plane fractures – Little to no attenuation of contaminants within the aquifer • Flow rates vary from 10’s to 100’s of ft/day
• 14,000 dairy farms • 1.25 million milk cows. • Each cow produces 150 lbs of waste/day
(1.25 million cows) (150 lbs. per day) (365 days) = 34,000,000 tons of waste annually
