Abstract/Description
The Everglades National Park has as one of its primary management objectives the preservation and restoration of sustainable Everglades ecosystems [Everglades National Park, 1993]. The South Florida Natural Resources Center (SFNRC) at Everglades National Park is charged with reviewing and assessing appropriate information on the status and trends of the natural resources on Park Service lands to determine if progress towards this objectives is being made. Moreover,the SFNRC is actively...

The South Florida Natural Resources Center (SFNRC) at Everglades National Park is charged with reviewing and assessing appropriate information on the status and trends of the natural resources on Park Service lands to determine if progress towards this objectives is being made. Moreover,the SFNRC is actively participating in interagency efforts to bring about ecosystem restoration. This report provides information about the Program of Experimental Water Deliveries to Everglades National Park, the Modified Water Deliveries, and the C-111 Project relevant to National Park Service objectives for hydrologic and ecologic restoration of Everglades National Park. In addition, the report represents the efforts of the National Park Service to provide some technical assistance as part of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's reconsultation pursuant to Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C. 1536).

Abstract/Description
After 1900 men came in increasing numbers to south Florida and began extensive modification of the vast wilderness of swamps, forests, marshes, prairies, and bays. The original south Florida ecosystem that evolved over thousands of years gave way to a new three-part ecosystem which incorporated an agricultural component, an urban component, and a component of the original ecosystem that is largely undeveloped but still has been affected by man, These components are interrelated through the...

The original south Florida ecosystem that evolved over thousands of years gave way to a new three-part ecosystem which incorporated an agricultural component, an urban component, and a component of the original ecosystem that is largely undeveloped but still has been affected by man, These components are interrelated through the flow of energy and resources.

Hydrologic Effects of the 1984 through 1986 L-31 Canal Drawdowns on the Northern Taylor Slough Basin of Everglades National Park
Title
Hydrologic Effects of the 1984 through 1986 L-31 Canal Drawdowns on the Northern Taylor Slough Basin of Everglades National Park.
Name/Creator
Johnson, Robert A.
Abstract/Description
The report documents the results of hydrologic investigations conducted by the National Park Service, evaluating the impacts of 1984 through 1986 L-31W canal drawdown operations on the water resources of the northern Taylor Slough Basin of Everglades National Park. Drawdown impacts on the hydrologic conditions in the central and northern portions of the Taylor Slough Basin were not investigated. The 1984 drawdown period began on the morning of October 15. Control structure S-175 remained open...

Drawdown impacts on the hydrologic conditions in the central and northern portions of the Taylor Slough Basin were not investigated. The 1984 drawdown period began on the morning of October 15. Control structure S-175 remained open for seven days to stabilize L-31W canal stages at the required 3.50 feet. The overall results of the study indicate that management of wet season stages below 4.50 feet in the upper portion of the L-31W canal causes drainage of the adjacent Taylor Slough wetlands.

Abstract/Description
The Interim Operational Plan, or IOP, for water deliveries to Everglades National Park (ENP) is the most recent in a long series of water management plans designed to provide water supply to the park. The specific purpose of this operational plan, however, is to create more favorable hydrologic conditions within ENP for the protection of the endangered Cape Sable Seaside Sparrow (Ammodramus maritimus mirabilis) and its designated critical habitat.

Show moreThe Interim Operational Plan, or IOP, for water deliveries to Everglades National Park (ENP) is the most recent in a long series of water management plans designed to provide water supply to the park. The specific purpose of this operational plan, however, is to create more favorable hydrologic conditions within ENP for the protection of the endangered Cape Sable Seaside Sparrow (Ammodramus maritimus mirabilis) and its designated critical habitat. Control and manipulation of water deliveries to ENP have been practiced for approximately four decades. Throughout this long period, the often conflicting needs of the natural environment and the needs of the built environment have complicated the decision-making process regarding water deliveries to the park; often resulting in neither set of needs being fully met. IOP presents a new version of this challenge. It seeks to avoid jeopardizing the existence of a species endemic to a portion of the ecosystem in the short-term before restoration of the greater ecosystem can be effected in the longer-term.
