The Central Sands of Wisconsin is one of the premier agricultural regions of the US, especially for potato production. However, this production comes at a cost of groundwater use. We are working with growers on regional evapotranspiration and groundwater measurement and modeling.

Many of the most pressing questions about global change are not necessarily limited by the need to collect new data as much as by our ability to synthesize existing data. The Predictive Ecosystem Analyzer (PEcAn) seeks to improve this ability.

The Chequamegon Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study (ChEAS ) is a research cooperative that seeks to understand carbon and water cycles of terrestrial ecosystems at regional scales, using the Northwoods of Wisconsin as our study region. New projects have also focused on central and southern Wisconsin ecosystems.
