Notes

General Note:
This report analyzes hydrologic and salinity data from the Everglades National Park (ENP) marine monitoring program, ENP Taylor Slough flow monitoring effort, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) coastal creek discharge monitoring effort, and information from several individual studies on evaporation rates. The report summarizes conditions in Florida Bay during the 2009 calendar year, discussing trends in those conditions for the available period of record for data collection efforts, focusing on 1990–2009. The report’s focus is on factors influencing salinity, recognized as the primary driver of ecological conditions in the bay.
