2 Lake Pepin Sediment Accumulation History Core Top 10 3 tons/yr Hey, Brain what are we going to do today Same thing we do every day Pinky try to figure out where the sediment comes from, and why it changes Down Core - 10 X faster than pre-settlement mucho 133 dump trucks/day - Records erosion history of Minnesota s ag lands
3 Lake Pepin: Integrator of watershed scale erosion processes Sediment cores = window to the past Record erosion history of MN Watershed Bay City I Maiden Rock N W E II S km J III Lake Pepin Lake City IV Pepin V MN River watershed, ~85% cultivated
4 What is the source of the sediment? Lake Pepin Sediment Accumulation History Field Erosion Non-field
5 So What. Sediment a serious pollutant Ag Fields assumed to be major source Spend many $$$$ to keep soil on fields BMP s designed for fields Can t solve the problem unless we understand the problem??
6 Why does it change over time? Lake Pepin Sediment Accumulation Rate Core Top tons/yr -It s possible the reasons are related -Why does the rate change the way it does? - Do the sources also change? Down Core We can t solve the problem until we understand what is causing the changes.
7 Fingerprinting Sediment Sources with 210 Pb Constant Exposure to Atmosphere and Rain Pb-210 Cultivated Field Suspended Sediment Activity (bq/g) Non-field Erosion 0 Minimal Exposure to Atmosp. and Rain
8 Relative Contribution of Fields to Riverine Sediment 24% 31% S. Fork Crow = 25% 31% 26% Lake Pepin = 14% 28% 20% 16% 27% 30% 15% 14%

LeSueur R Field vs Non-field Sediment Loads Field Load Non-field Load Between Watersheds: - Non-field vary by: 400,000 - Field Load Vary only: 20,000 - Non-field highly variable!

12 ..and now for Lake Pepin (= field + non-field) Field Non-field % 75% % 72% % 65% % 30% Neat-O, but why does it change
13 Non-field if you express loading as is loading, increasing. some sources not really changing 6 Lake Pepin Sediment Loading 5 Field Non-Field Field load ~ constant Non-field accelerating & is now 6X natural rate Load (g/cm 2 -yr) Prairie Ag
14 So % Sediment from non-field sources Ravens Creek = 70% Kasota Pond & integrator sites = 60-80% Lake Pepin = 65% Event TSS samples = >70% and
15 Symbols of the L. Pepin Sed. Accumulation Rate tons/yr Sed Rate is 10X pre-settlement >65% of sed is non-field Therefore RATE of non-field is not natural
16 why change: A hypothesis that needs testing Rate due to artificial drainage + precip Rate due to loss of perennial cover tons/yr (inorganic sed.) % prairie gone Intensification of tile-drainage (& increasing precip) Natural Rate Begin plowing prairie
17 Blue Earth County, slide from MPCA
18 Given that: Non-field inputs are significant and increasing Hypothesize that: changes in riverine hydrology are mechanism for non-field inputs.? Has tile drainage changed riverine hydrologic conditions? Are changes in precipitation responsible These two are linked--how do we disentangle them?
19 Compare watersheds with and without drainage Hydrologic Changes -over time -between watersheds -link to amount/density of drainage - normalize to climate Relate magnitude and timing of: -- hydrologic changes -- installation of drainage to Pepin sedimentation rate changes
20 Disentangling effects of climate from artificial drainage Preliminary data--a hint at what we might find 800 Elk River (minimal tile drainage) LeSueur River (intense tile drainage) R 2 = 0 p = 0.71 R 2 = 0.17 p= Runoff Ratio -May Runoff Ratio = flow/precipition (normalizes flow to rainfall)
21 Examine 14 other hydrologic parameters (monthly and seasonally) e.g. runoff ratio, peak frequency, maximum flow, max flow duration, rate of increase, rate of decrease, flow:pdhi - do they change over time - how do watersheds compare - are changes coincident with drainage, or climate - how much can be explained by drainage v. climate -Has drainage changed hydrologic conditions? Model 2 Waterhsheds ( 1with, 1 without ) Swat model: -calibrate to compare model predictions to actual
22 Summary WHY? Not natural Why has non-field sediment loading increased How much is related to intensification of artificial drainage and/or increased precipitation?

30 Tracing Sediment Sources with Radioisotope Fingerprints Pb and 137 Cs are deposited by rain 2. Different Sources = Different Concentrations 3. Fields have high concentrations why am I singing and what does it have to do with fingerprinting 4. Non-fields sources have ~ 0 Ravines, Streambanks, Bluffs Gullies 5. Suspended Sediment combination 6. Measure suspended sed. and compare to Source Fingerprints
