Regional evaluation of evapotranspiration in the Everglades Regional evaluation of evapotranspiration in the Everglades
Understanding the water budget of the Everglades system is crucial to the success of restoration and management strategies. Although the water budget is simple in concept, it is difficult to assess quantitatively. Models used to simulate changes in water levels and vegetation resulting from management strategies need to accurately simulate all components of the water budget. One of the...

Review and evaluation of a model for simulating the natural hydrology of South Florida Review and evaluation of a model for simulating the natural hydrology of South Florida
The South Florida Ecosystem Program is an intergovernmental effort to re-establish and maintain the ecosystem of South Florida. One element of the restoration effort is the development of a firm scientific basis for making management decisions. The U.S. Geologcal Survey (USGS) is one of the agencies that provides this needed scientific information through the USGS South Florida Ecosystem...

Surface electromagnetic geophysical exploration of the ground-water resources of Isla de Mona, Puerto Rico, a caribbean carbonate island Surface electromagnetic geophysical exploration of the ground-water resources of Isla de Mona, Puerto Rico, a caribbean carbonate island
Two electromagnetic surface geophysical techniques were used to explore the ground-water resources of Isla de Mona, Puerto Rico—a 55-square-kilometer island located between Puerto Rico and Hispañiola, Isla de Mona is a tectonically uplifted carbonate plateau of Neogene age that has an average elevation of about 50 meters above mean sea level. This plateau is bounded by vertical cliffs...

Denudation rates determined from the accumulation of in situ-produced 10Be in the luquillo experimental forest, Puerto Rico Denudation rates determined from the accumulation of in situ-produced 10Be in the luquillo experimental forest, Puerto Rico
We present a simple method for estimation of long-term mean denudation rates using in situ-produced cosmogenic 10Be in fluvial sediments. Procedures are discussed to account for the effects of soil bioturbation, mass wasting and attenuation of cosmic rays by biomass and by local topography. Our analyses of 10Be in quartz from bedrock outcrops, soils, mass-wasting sites and riverine...

Preliminary assessment of injection, storage, and recovery of freshwater in the lower Hawthorn aquifer, Cape Coral, Florida Preliminary assessment of injection, storage, and recovery of freshwater in the lower Hawthorn aquifer, Cape Coral, Florida
A preliminary assessment of subsurface injection, storage and recovery of fresh canal water was made in the naturally brackish lower Hawthorn aquifer in Cape Coral, southwestern Florida. A digital modeling approach was used for this preliminary assessment, incorporating available data on hydrologic conditions, aquifer properties, and water quality to simulate density-dependent ground...
