Explanation / Answer

1) The South Florida Ecosystem

no region reflects this more than South Florida. A unique combination of geological history, climate, geography, and environmental forces has made the South Florida Ecosystem an important reservoir of landscape, community, and species diversity. The vegetation of South Florida represents a mixture of Caribbean, southern temperate, and local influences. The

South Florida Ecosystem supports the only subtropical ecological communities in the continental United States: about 60 percent of the native plant species south of Lake

Okeechobee originated from the tropics. As a result of this convergence of Caribbean, temperate, and endemic influences, the South Florida Ecosystem supports

substantial ecological, community, taxonomic, and genetic diversity. This chapter provides an overview of South Florida, highlighting its biodiversity, the pressing ecological issues, and ongoing management and restoration efforts.The Watersheds and Subregions of SouthFlorida

The South Florida Ecosystem encompasses 67,346 square kilometers (26,002 square miles) covering the 19 southernmost counties in Florida (Figure 1). From a watershed management perspective, South Florida can be described by further subdividing the region into the following subregions: Kissimmee River, Lake Okeechobee, Lake Wales Ridge, Peace River/Charlotte

Harbor, Upper East Coast, Lower East Coast,

Caloosahatchee River, Everglades, Big Cypress, and

Florida Keys, including Biscayne Bay, Card Sound, and the lower southwest estuaries

The Kissimmee River subregion forms the upstream portion of the Kissimmee-

Okeechobee-Everglades watershed. Originating near Orlando and ending at

Lake Okeechobee, the subregion encompasses most of Osceola and

Okeechobee counties as well as portions of Highlands, Polk, and Glades

counties. There are three sub-basins within the drainage: the upper basin, with

Lake Kissimmee and 18 smaller lakes; the lower basin with the Kissimmee

River and its tributary watersheds (excluding Istokpoga Creek) between Lake

Kissimmee and Lake Okeechobee; and the Lake Istokpoga drainage area (COE

1996, Koebel 1995). Lake Kissimmee is Florida
