Case Study: Longboat Key, Florida

The two non-governmental stakeholders are considered by the National Park Service, to have a intimate relationship with the land. They are the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians: these are members of the Native Indian Tribes that inhabited the area, long before land development). And the second group, the Gladesmen: “husbands and sons who built small homes in the everglades (National Park Service, August 01, 2016). Each of the groups have been impacted differently, but both agree the federal government has been unable to maintain the mass land development done by prior generation.

What is the value of Florida's Everglades? The Everglades is very important to the ecosystem. A large variety of things depend upon Florida's Everglades. But some of us destroy the Everglades by building homes on the Everglades, which puts animals at risk. This is valuable because a large population of different species rely on the Everglades, many humans also rely on the Everglades, and the Everglades are very interesting.

The aim of this report is to investigate Long Reef and Collaroy Beach’s coastal management.

The Everglades, also known as the River of Grass, is one of South Florida's most treasured areas. It is an area still full of wonder and mystery. The Everglades is lined with a specific type of limestone bedrock formed by tiny organisms called byrozoans. These animals, though not related to coral, act like coral by extracting dissolved limestone from the sea water around them and using it to construct protective chambers in which to live. They then attach to various kinds of sea grasses on the ocean floor and coat them as well. Individual chambers combine together to form rock-like structures. Over thousands of years, when South Florida was completely submerged, a vast amount of this limestone

Over a time period of many years, the Florida Everglades have been harmed.This is due not only to the fact that the Everglades were almost entirely drained, but also the fact that extremely hazardous chemicals are being put into the Everglades. However many organizations are helping the Everglades get their water quality and pollution under control.

Maintaining ecological diversity is necessary for the survival of a biological community. In the United States, American citizens are on the verge of irrevocably damaging one of the country's most unique and diverse treasures - the Florida Everglades. This national park is now the only remaining patch of a river that used to span 120 miles from Lake Okeechobee to the Florida Bay. Dikes and levees created by the Army Corps of Engineers in the late 1940's drained this river to reduce flooding and increase useable water for the development of the region. This major diversion of water lead to a trickle down effect causing the continual decline of the environmental state of the Everglades. Since then, debates over the

The Everglades is a subtropical wilderness with hardwood hammocks, mangrove forests, along with grass marshes. The Florida Everglades used to be a home for many endangered species, that was until the sudden changes in the environment. The Everglades are facing water-related issues, such as its problems with the water supply. There are issues facing recent attempts to improve the water supply, and some history on the Everglades.

Looking at these figures actually shows a grim picture there is 53,187 people in the county estimated to have

The Florida Everglades are a great representation of a wild Florida. The park is a place full of wildlife, and rich with history. Even though there are many problems, and many failed attempts to save the Everglades, the place itself is still very historic. Native American Tribes and settlement, history and wildlife, have all been a key part in the Everglades today.

Some popular national in Florida include the Everglades National Park, Big Cypress National Park and Dry Tortugas National Park. All three parks offer a myriad of outdoor activities and expose visitors to an abundance of wildlife. The everglades National park west of Miami offers visitors activities such as hiking, canoeing, biking, boat tours and tram tours. The park is a World Heritage Site, a International Biosphere Reserve and a Wetland of National Importance. Additionally, the park is the largest subtropical wilderness in the country. The habitat is a home for a number of rare or endangered animals, such as the Florida panther, manatees and the American alligator.

The Florida Keys celebrates a diverse and colorful history that is full of adventurous tales of Native American Indians, Spanish, pirates, hurricanes, and shipwrecks. Offering the only living coral barrier reef in the U.S, this island archipelago lies along the Florida Strait stretching 200 miles from Biscayrie Bay to the Dry Tortugas. Before Spaniard Ponce De Leon’s expedition in 1573, the Florida Keys was home to Native American Tribes, Calusa and Tequesta. The Spanish named these islands Los Martires (the martyrs) and rightfully so, since many ships were wrecked on the reef during early times. However, the name was once again changed by the Spanish to “Keys” from the Spanish word “cayos” meaning “Small Island.” Subsequently, the official name Florida Keys was adopted.

Groundwater is the largest and most available usable source of drinking water in the state. There is a vast and mysterious system of caves and natural springs in North Central Florida. The cave system within the aquifer is one of the most amazing parts. The caves are remarkable in many ways. They are among the deepest and longest in the world, let alone the U.S. Another amazing aspect of the system is the purity of the water. The springs collectively produce billions of gallons of crystal clear water per day. The whole system stems from the Florida Aquifer that rests under the entire state. When most people think of Florida, they think of the weather and the beaches, but its the springs and the whole water

The Florida Oceanographic Coastal Center is a local educational center for lovers of marine life. Located on Hutchinson Island in Stuart, it offers educational programs for visitors and manages an abundance of its own research programs. The center also possesses restoration programs that aid in creating healthy costal ecosystems.

Orlando Florida is known worldwide for its entertainment facilities, notably Walt Disney World, Universal Theme Park and other attractions. This paper reports on Orlando's natural environment and ecology, which doesn't get the attention and publicity that the theme parks do, but in the end these natural world places are more vital to the well being of the humans and wildlife in that area of Central Florida.
