Ecosystem Responses to Salt Water Intrusion in the Coastal Everglades, Florida

The interlinked biological processes that drive carbon cycling in Everglades coastal wetlands are poorly understood but critically important for predicting responses to sea-level rise, climate change, and outcomes of Everglades restoration. Speaker will discuss efforts to quantify the effects of multiple drivers on C cycling in Florida Coastal Everglades ecosystems and the development of biogeochemical models for use in water management strategies.
