1 Lower Rice Lake, the major wild rice-producing lake on the White Earth Reservation: Historic to Present Water Levels Lainey Fineday White Earth Tribal and Community College 2011 NASA- Kiksapa Summer REU
2 Discussion Overview Wild Rice (Zizania Palustris) is an aquatic grass species native to North America that grows in the shallow lakes and rivers of Minnesota. Lower Rice Lake is the largest lake on the White Earth Indian Reservation in Northern Minnesota. The White Earth treaty of 1867 states this lake as part of a farming region in the area. Lower Rice Lake Southwest view
3 Background Lower Rice Lake Coniferous Biome The prairie biome was intended for farming practices for those who wished to farm. Prairie Biome Deciduous Biome
4 Background White Earth Reservation Lower Rice Lake Minnesota state grain
5 Before harvest Background continued After harvest
6 Background continued LOWER RICE LAKE RICE LAKE,MN Estimated % of the lake is wild rice
7 Objective Statement The objective of this project is to assess changes in water levels on Lower Rice Lake, a major wild rice-producing lake on the White Earth Reservation utilizing geo-spatial information from NASA images historical aerial photos and historical maps. Historic maps by Holly Ristau Thank you
8 Materials and Methods Installed ArcMap10 Import all data into ARCGIS Geo-Reference historic maps from Downloaded Landsat 4&5 imagery Digitized Landsat 4&5 imagery from Traveled to Lower Rice to get field data with kayaks Downloaded USDA/NAIP images

12 Recommendations and future work Why are there so many water lilies at the southern end of the lake? Have they always been there? Will they eventually take over the wild rice areas? PHOTOS BY: Diane Kier and Lainey Fineday Are high sulfate levels effecting the crop? Has the canal in the northeastern part of the lake been draining farmland runoff into the lake effecting the crop?
