The high surface salinity in the Atlantic on which the Atlantic thermohaline circulation is dependent is maintained by two processes: the Agulhas Leakage/Rings which brings salty Indian Ocean waters into the South Atlantic and the "Atmospheric Bridge" which evaporates subtropical Atlantic waters and exports it to the Pacific.

Several ecosystems are present in the Everglades and boundaries between them are subtle or absent the primary feature of the Everglades is the sawgrass marsh the iconic water and sawgrass combination in the shallow river 100 miles (160 km) long and 60 miles (97 km) wide that spans from Lake Okeechobee to Florida Bay is often referred to as the "true Everglades" or just "the Glades" Prior to the first drainage attempts in 1905 the sheetflow occupied nearly a third of the lower Florida peninsula Sawgrass thrives in the slowly moving water but may die in unusually deep floods if oxygen is unable to reach its roots It is particularly vulnerable immediately after a fire the hydroperiod for the marsh is at least nine months and can last longer Where sawgrass grows densely few animals or other plants live although alligators choose these locations for nesting Where there is more room periphyton grows Periphyton supports larval insects and amphibians which in turn are consumed as food by birds fish and reptiles it also absorbs calcium from water which adds to the calcitic composition of the marl.

The racial makeup of the population of the Miami area [6,066,387] as of 2016: 4 Carnival Cruise Lines 3,500 From the Glades peoples two major nations emerged in the area: the Calusa and the Tequesta the Calusa was the largest and most powerful nation in South Florida it controlled fifty villages located on Florida's west coast around Lake Okeechobee and on the Florida Keys Most Calusa villages were located at the mouths of rivers or on key islands the Calusa were hunter-gatherers who lived on small game fish turtles alligators shellfish and various plants Most of their tools were made of bone or teeth although sharpened reeds were also effective for hunting or war Calusa weapons consisted of bows and arrows atlatls and spears Canoes were used for transportation and South Florida tribes often canoed through the Everglades but rarely lived in them Canoe trips to Cuba were also common. 2.2 1940s: World War II Concourse A North Lauderdale 9.2 Public transit 7 Parks A series of biennial reports from the U.S National Research Council have reviewed the progress of CERP the fourth report in the series released in 2012 found that little progress has been made in restoring the core of the remaining Everglades ecosystem; instead most project construction so far has occurred along its periphery the report noted that to reverse ongoing ecosystem declines it will be necessary to expedite restoration projects that target the central Everglades and to improve both the quality and quantity of the water in the ecosystem to better understand the potential implications of the current slow pace of progress the report assessed the current status of ten Everglades ecosystem attributes including phosphorus loads peat depth and populations of snail kites birds of prey that are endangered in South Florida Most attributes received grades ranging from C (degraded) to D (significantly degraded) but the snail kite received a grade of F (near irreversible damage) the report also assessed the future trajectory of each ecosystem attribute under three restoration scenarios: improved water quality improved hydrology and improvements to both water quality and hydrology which helped highlight the urgency of restoration actions to benefit a wide range of ecosystem attributes and demonstrate the cost of inaction Overall the report concluded that substantial near-term progress to address both water quality and hydrology in the central Everglades is needed to reverse ongoing degradation before it is too late.
