Biogeochemical data collected from Northeast Shark River Slough, Everglades National Park, Florida, USA, 2006 - ongoing

This project was established in 2006 to document the pattern of abundance of key ecological indicators (e.g., surface water, soil, floc, periphyton and sawgrass) across the NESRS landscape. A total of 30 sites were established and monitored in 2006, 2007 and 2008. After the completion of 1-mile bridge in 2012, additional 10 new sites were established to observe the ecological impact of 1-mile bridge (known as Bridge & Census sites). In 2015, additional 40 sites were established along eight transects (T1-T8, known as near canal sites) in ENP marshes starting at, and roughly perpendicular to the L-29 canal. The purpose of these sites was to monitor the potential effects of Modified Water Deliveries (MWD) operations on changing nutrient concentrations and ratios in key ecological compartments due to increased downstream discharges from the L-29 canal beneath the 1-mile and 2.6-mile bridges and culverts along Tamiami Trail.

本项目于2006年启动，旨在记录NESRS区域内关键生态指标（如地表水、土壤、絮凝体、周丛生物、锯草）的丰度分布模式。2006、2007及2008年共设立30个监测点位并开展监测工作。2012年1英里桥建成后，新增10个监测点位以观测该桥梁的生态影响，该类点位亦被称为"桥梁与普查点位"。2015年，在大沼泽地国家公园（ENP）的湿地中，沿8条样带（T1-T8，该类点位亦被称为"近运河点位"）增设40个监测点位，样带起始于L-29运河并大致与该运河垂直。此类点位的设立目的为监测改良输水作业（Modified Water Deliveries，MWD）对关键生态单元内营养盐浓度及比例变化的潜在影响——此类变化由塔米亚米小径沿线1英里桥、2.6英里桥及涵洞下方的L-29运河南下泄流量增加所引发。
