UMRS LTRMP 2010/11 LCU Mapping -- Mississippi River Navigation Pool 15 Aerial photographs for Pools 1-13 Upper Mississippi River System and Pools, Alton-Marseilles, Illinois River were collected in color infrared (CIR) in August of 2010 at 8”/pixel and 16”/pixel respectively using a mapping-grade Applanix DSS 439 digital aerial camera. In August 2011, CIR aerial photographs for Pools 14-Open River South, Upper Mississippi River and Pools Dresden-Lockport, Illinois River were collected at 16”/pixel with the same camera. All CIR aerial photos were orthorectified, mosaicked, compressed, and served via the UMESC Internet site. The CIR aerial photos were interpreted and automated using a 31-class LTRMP vegetation classification. The 2010/11 LCU databases were prepared by or under the supervision...

With 9X9 film and film cameras becoming increasingly rare, the 2010 systemic aerial photo effort will use a digital mapping camera to collect 8”/pixel imagery above Lock & Dam (L&D) 13 and 16”/pixel imagery below L&D 13 and along the Illinois River floodplain. There are two main reasons for this distinction; 1) the floodplain above L&D 13 is narrower and contains a greater amount and diversity of aquatic vegetation, and 2) below L&D 13, the Upper Mississippi River is largely channelized, with less aquatic vegetation, and wider, leveed floodplains dominated by agricultural use. This holds true for much of the Illinois River as well... Categories: Project; Types: Collection Habitat selection, movement patterns, and hazards encountered by Northern Leopard Frogs (Lithobates pipiens) in an agricultural landscape: Data Telemetry data for 59 Northern Leopard Frogs (Lithobates pipiens) breeding in ponds in Houston and Winona Counties, MN; 2001-2002. Agricultural intensification is causing declines in many wildlife species, including Northern Leopard Frogs (Lithobates pipiens). Specific information about frog movements, habitat selection, and sources of mortality can be used to inform conservation-focused land management and acquisition. We studied Northern Leopard Frogs in southeastern Minnesota, part of the Driftless Area ecoregion, characterized by hills and valleys and a mix of agriculture, forests, small towns and farmsteads. In this area, small farm ponds, originally built to control soil erosion are used by the species for...
