Description:

Everglades Explorer is a library, archive and research service with customized search engines. Everglades Explorer's mission is to provide easier location of quality and specific information, and improve quick access to data, publications and maps buried or scattered across the shallow and deep web. The portal also provides records, links and archives connecting directly to video, sound recordings, pamphlets, books, photos, art, curriculum material, government reports, theses and dissertations, scientific data sets, and more.

Everglades Explorer makes use of :

1) An open source discovery system (eXtensible Catalog) collecting and housing thick metadata in MARCXML and Dublin Core linking directly to diverse academic digital resources;

2) The Internet Archive, collecting and linking searchers to Everglades related documents, reports and other resources in .pdf and media formats, mostly harvested from government and non-government organizations(NGO).

3) A targeted Google API searching across thin Everglades metadata and real-time Content Management System (CMS) websites of partners, and other select organizations and government agencies.

Title: Hydrology of Southeast Florida and Associated Topics

URL: http://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED099225.pdf

Collection: Everglades Explorer -- EAPRA (Assorted PDF & Report Archive)

Description: This booklet deals with the hydrology of southeastern Florida. It is designed to provide the citizen, teacher, or student with hydrological information, to promote an understanding of water resources, and to initiate conservation practices within Florida communities. The collection of articles within the booklet deal with Florida water resources and Florida water problems, but much of the information is applicable to other areas. Topics such as the hydrologic cycle, ground water aquifers, water resources and demands, water quality, the Everglades, and water-life are covered, accompanied by maps, diagrams, tables, and illustrations. The articles are written by various people--engineers, environmentalists, researchers--or are excerpts from publications or speeches and present different viewpoints on controversial issues. A brief historical overview of the hydrology of Florida, a glossary, and reference list are also included. (TK)
