MADISON, Wis. (WRN) The Department of Natural Resources unveils a new tool to help monitor water quality.
The Wisconsin Water Explorer is a web-based tool that can help residents address concerns about the quality of water in their local lakes or rivers.
The tool makes scientific data analysis accessible to the public and provides insights into current conditions and trends through graphs, maps and automated reports. It also includes an updated version of the Wisconsin Lake Modeling Suite to help people analyze whether a lake adheres to water quality standards and identify likely sources of pollution.
