Florida's Natural Ecosystems and Native Species: Volume 3

Authors: Ellie Whitney, D. Bruce Means, Anne Rudloe

The former 2004 Priceless Florida book, which is no longer in print and has been updated, modified and divided into three stand-alone yet complimentary volumes--Florida's Uplands, Florida's Wetlands and Florida's Waters.  

Wonderful resource for FMNP students and graduates interested in learning about natural Florida and its ecology including open-water systems, aquifers, hydrology and wetland functions, flora and fauna.

This volume discusses the freshwater and saltwater systems of Florida, including lakes and ponds; rivers and streams; springs; aquatic caves; estuarine waters and seafloors; submarine meadows, sponge, rock and reef communities; and the Gulf and Atlantic Ocean.

A concise and heavily illustrated introduction to the fresh- and saltwater ecosystems, as well as the native species found there.
