1 Climate Change, Precipitation Trends and Water Quality David S. Liebl Wisconsin Lakes Partnership Convention Stevens Point 4/25/14 Map - Kate Barrett
2 Wisconsin Precipitation Trends: Annual Summer Anvil Lake (Vilas Co.) Source: USGS
3 Climate Benefit Projected change in annual precipitation % (SRES A1B) It s likely to become wetter, not drier
4 Temperature Hot Precipitation Climate risks to water quality Windy Dry Wet = Increased water temperature Algal blooms, Habitat loss = Sediment re-suspension Turbidity = Low flows and water levels Withdrawal, Bank erosion = High flows and water levels Bank erosion, Contaminants Intense = More erosion and flooding Soil erosion, Contaminant re-suspension Icy = Increased salt use Chloride concentrations
5 Seasonal change in max temperature (SRES A1B) Winter +6-7⁰F Spring +5-6⁰F Summer +4-5⁰F Fall +6⁰F
6 Climate Vulnerability Lake Superior Increasing surface water temperature: More frequent algal blooms Lake Winnebago FDL Co
7 Climate Vulnerability Increasing water temperature: Higher surface wind speeds Higher wind speeds: Increased turbidity Lake Superior regional wind speeds - Desai, et al 2009 Southern Lake Michigan Turbidity Index ( 10 and 25 mg/l exceedances) Schwab, et al 2006
8 Climate Vulnerability Warmer winters + less ice cover: Increased surface evaporation NASA Lower Great Lakes water levels December 2012
9 Climate Vulnerability Summer temperature +4-5⁰F Higher temp + Less summer rain = Drought Summer rainfall +0-5% An incentive to irrigate?
10 Climate Vulnerability Potential reductions in stream base flow?
11 Projected change in annual peak temperatures (SRES A1B) days >90⁰F +0-5 days >100⁰F
12 Climate Vulnerability Heat waves and drought = increased water use Heat and Drought Rain and Cooling Wisconsin has over 7,500 high capacity wells
13 Projected changes in Wisconsin s precipitation Projected change in > 2 rain + 2-5/10yr (SRES A1B)
14 The trend continues over time Projected change in > 2 rain + 4-7/10yr (SRES A1B)
15 Year Projected Return Period vs Historical NARCCAP Storm frequency 0 1.0" 2.5" 3.0" 3.5" 4.0" 5.0" Storm Intensity -Vavrus and Behnke Inch 7 Storm intensity Storm Intensity vs Historical 3 NARCCAP Both are projected to increase year 5 years 10 years 25 years 50 years 100 years Return Period
16 Climate Vulnerability Soil loss from increased precipitation Climate Impacts on erosion difficult to predict, best estimate % Figure 3. Wisconsin Buffer Initiative estimates of sediment delivered to watershed outlet. (1 t/acre = 224 tonnes/sq km) - Diebel et al Soil conservation and water quality are compatible with current and emerging expectations of Wisconsin s farmlands, provided that practices we largely know how to do are widely implemented by our farmers. - WICCI Soil Conservation Working Group
17 Climate Vulnerability Runoff from large storm events transports nutrients and sediment to lakes, degrading water quality and causing eutrophication. Photos: R. Lathrop Photo: Melvin McCartney
18 Seasonal change in precipitation (SRES A1B) Winter % Spring % Summer +0-5% Fall +5-10%
19 Seasonal change in max temperature (SRES A1B) Winter +6-7⁰F Spring +5-6⁰F Summer +4-5⁰F Fall +6⁰F
20 Climate Benefit Increased groundwater recharge Winter +6-7⁰F CRCM ccsm CRCM cgcm3 HRM3 gfdl HRM3 hadcm3 Black Earth Creek Watershed vs % Winter % Mean Annual Mean annual Change change (mm) (mm) Runoff Recharge ET Precip Runoff Recharge ET Precipitation Evan Murdock
21 Climate Vulnerability Winter Temp +6-7⁰F More winter/spring precipitation Flooding from increased winter spring rains Heavier snow and/or ice storms Winter Precip % Cottle
