Wisconsin Aquifers: Surficial Groundwater and the Central Sands
A close examination of Wisconsin aquifers begins in episode five, which features USGS scientist David Krabbenhoft, slices of Wisconsin’s geological history, and an interview with Dr. George Kraft. Dr. Kraft is a water resources scientist who is intimately familiar with the ongoing situation in Wisconsin’s Central Sands area, where lowering water levels are becoming an issue of serious concern.
