This grant is for the purpose of analyzing and summarizing seasonally varying controls on evapotranspiration (ET) within Everglades National Park (ENP). This critical research will delve into the complex dynamics of water loss from the ecosystem, focusing on key sites, notably a mangrove forest in Shark River. The project aims to develop robust models by integrating high-resolution Eddy Covariance data with extensive satellite-based information. Understanding these ET patterns is vital for assessing the water balance, predicting impacts of climate change, and informing effective conservation strategies for the unique and sensitive Everglades environment. The comprehensive findings will significantly contribute to ecological management and long-term sustainability efforts.
