Simulating the Response of Estuarine Salinity to Natural and Anthropogenic Controls
The response of salinity in Apalachicola Bay, Florida to changes in water management alternatives and storm and sea level rise is studied using an integrated high-resolution hydrodynamic modeling system based on Curvilinear-grid Hydrodynamics in 3D (CH3D)

Distribution of Vibrio cholerae in the Apalachicola (Florida) Bay Estuary
Vibrio cholerae non-O1 was found throughout the Apalachicola, FL, estuary. V. cholerae O1 was isolated primarily at the City of Apalachicola sewage treatment plant, Scipio Creek and the north shore of St. George Island. Highest concentrations of both serogroups occurred in August and November.

Model Sensitivity to Topographic Uncertainty in Meso- and Microtidal Marshes
Light detection and ranging (Lidar) derived digital elevation models are widely used in modeling coastal marsh systems. However, the topographic error in these models can affect simulations of marsh coverage and characteristics.

Predatory Bacteriovorax communities ordered by various prey species. [PDF]
The role of predation in altering microbial communities has been studied for decades but few examples are known for bacterial predators. Bacteriovorax are halophilic prokaryotes that prey on susceptible gram-negative bacteria.

Between November 2010, and May 2011, eleven cases of cholera, unrelated to a concurrent outbreak on the island of Hispaniola, were recorded, and the causative agent, Vibrio cholerae serogroup O75, was traced to oysters harvested from Apalachicola Bay ...

Coastal wetlands (CWs) offer numerous imperative functions that support a diverse array of life forms that are poorly adapted for other environments and provide an economic base for human communities. Unfortunately, CWs have been experiencing significant

Tropical Storm and Hurricane Impacts on a Gulf Coast Estuary: Apalachicola Bay, Florida [PDF]
Abstract Since 1985, various long-term monitoring programs have been in place in the Apalachicola Bay area that can be utilized to determine the effects of tropical storms and hurricanes on the natural resources of the area. The size, speed of movement, severity, angle and direction of landfall, as well as storm surge height and the amount and location

ABSTRACT Florida's regulatory framework requires the establishment of minimum flows to protect aquatic ecosystems and water resources from significant harm. One of the primary methods used to evaluate significant harm is assessment of instream habitat, which relies on Habitat Suitability Criteria (HSC) curves that relate flow regimes and habitat ...
