picture info	Baraboo River The Baraboo River is a tributary of the Wisconsin River, in south-central Wisconsin in the United States. Via the Wisconsin River, it is part of the drainage basin, watershed of the Mississippi River. The Baraboo River also has one of the longest stretches of free-flowing (or "wild") river in the United States, with the removal of four dams in the 1990s leading to 112 miles of unimpeded river flow. Etymology The Baraboo River was probably named after a French trader in the area, Francois Barbeau, although it may also be a corruption of a different French word or phrase. The city of Baraboo, Wisconsin is named after the Baraboo River.

picture info	Narrows A narrows or narrow (used interchangeably but usually in the plural form), is a restricted land or water passage. Most commonly a narrows is a strait, though it can also be a water gap. A narrows may form where a stream passes through a tilted bed of hard rock lying between two softer beds: " the hard beds are vertical, so that their outcrop does not shift as erosion proceeds, a narrows is developed". Like a dam, this "raises the water level for a short distance upriver". A narrows is also typically a good location for trapping migrating fish. Furthermore, a narrows is "an important topographical feature for wind mixing",Howard J. Freeland, David M. Farmer, Colin D. Levings, ''Fjord Oceanography'' (1980), p. 216. an effect where a wind chill may form ice while the surrounding temperature remains above freezing.

picture info	Rivers Of Sauk County, Wisconsin A river is a natural stream of fresh water that flows on land or inside caves towards another body of water at a lower elevation, such as an ocean, lake, or another river. A river may run dry before reaching the end of its course if it runs out of water, or only flow during certain seasons. Rivers are regulated by the water cycle, the processes by which water moves around the Earth. Water first enters rivers through precipitation, whether from rainfall, the runoff of water down a slope, the melting of glaciers or snow, or seepage from aquifers beneath the surface of the Earth. Rivers flow in channeled watercourses and merge in confluences to form drainage basins, or catchments, areas where surface water eventually flows to a common outlet. Rivers have a great effect on the landscape around them. They may regularly overflow their banks and flood the surrounding area, spreading nutrients to the surrounding area. Sediment or alluvium carried by rivers shapes the landscape aro ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
