Water level, inundation, longitudinal profile, geomorphic change, and landform data for the Bad River (Mashkiiziibii) Estuary, WI, between 2014 and 2023

Metadata Updated: October 30, 2025

Some of the richest coastal wetland and estuarine habitats are found along the Great Lakes, but the dynamic, sediment-rich contributions from episodic river flooding are poorly understood. In 2016, record flooding of the sediment-rich Bad River (Mashkiiziibii) caused total inundation of the Bad and Kakagon Sloughs feeding Lake Superior and Chequamegon Bay. Water level and river flow data, longitudinal profiles, inundation maps, landform maps, and geomorphic change maps were used to determine river-related inundation and sedimentation patterns in the estuary. Details about the individual datasets and the methods used to produce them are contained within metadata files packaged with each dataset.
