Summary

The Indian River Lagoon (IRL) extends for 160 miles along Florida's east coast and is a complex system of three estuaries - Mosquito Lagoon, Banana River Lagoon, and Indian River Lagoon. Two concurrent phytoplankton blooms occurred in the IRL in 2011 that had detrimental ecological effects on the estuarine system. St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) is participating in a multi-agency effort to better characterize and understand the factors effecting algal dynamics of the IRL. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) worked in cooperation with the SJRWMD to study the spatial variability of water-quality conditions, especially conditions related to potential algal blooms, between sampling sites and the spatial extent of the influence [...]

Purpose

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) worked in cooperation with the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) to study the spatial variability of water-quality conditions, especially conditions related to potential algal blooms, between sampling sites and the spatial extent of the influence of tributaries to Indian River Lagoon.
