Implementation and Verification of BMPs to Reduce Everglades Agricultural Area Farm P Loads: Floating Aquatic Vegetation Impact on Farm P Load
Goals and Objectives
 
The goal of this research is improved management of floating aquatic vegetation (FAV) in Everglades Agricultural Area farm canals. The hypothesis of the research is that FAV-free canals will be found to produce more cohesive, less reactive sediments due to increased light penetration resulting from the change in farm canal aquatic plant community.
