Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Ecological Characterization of the Lower Everglades, Florida Bay, and the Florida Keys
The hydrologic boundaries of watersheds form distinct, though somewhat amorphous membranes across which considerable energy and materials flow. Within these bound aries, various forms of energy and matter are constantly being tapped, transformed, and modified to yield a wide range of products including fish and wildlife as well as indus trial and agricultural goods. These processes and pathways of production and consumption within the watershed are collectively responsible for what we call watershed metabolism.
