Book Description
Total N showed higher levels in the interior of WCA 1. Results for TC varied with different structures. Higher levels of TP and TCa were found in cattails, an invasive species, while lower levels were found in areas of native plant species. Total N showed little variation within the Water Conservation Area (WCA) overall and no significant correlation with specific vegetation species, but tended to have results that were the contrary to TP and TCa. The lowest mean value for NDVI and NDVI green was found in Open Water and the highest mean value in Hardwood Swamp. NDWI showed a wider range than both NDVI and NDVI green with the lowest mean value found in Sawgrass Marsh and the highest in Open Water, suggesting that spectral data are useful to explain the variability of biophysical signatures within vegetation classes. Functional relationships between spectral indices and TP were analyzed. The TN/TP and TC/TP ratios showed moderate and strong associations, respectively, to different vegetation classes, whereas TC/TN was insensitive. In summary, these findings support the hypothesis that high levels of TP are associated with increased occurrence of invasive plant species and decreased occurrence of native plant species and that nutrient levels vary due to external and internal forcing functions. These results will support the restoration process in the Everglades by increasing the understanding of those factors that cause shifts in vegetative patterns.
