Rinker's Treatment Wetland Water Quality monitoring data (2017 - 2019), South Daytona, Florida

Water quality was monitored at a constructed treatment wetland in South Daytona, Florida through a two-year project (Oct 2017- Sept 2019). The 2017-2018 INDIAN RIVER LAGOON NATIONAL ESTUARY PROGRAM funded Project Submitted to the IRL Council Oct 8th, 2018   Project Title:  Reed Canal  Basin  Stormwater  Improvement  through  Treatment  Wetland Construction in South Daytona, FL Project Applicant: Bethune-Cookman University (B-CU)   Amount of Request: $181,148 <h3>Other Funding Sources and Amount of Total Match: $183,095</h3> B-CU  ($74,631);  EPA  319  ($11,250);  Local  wetland/tree/shoreline  restoration  funds  (pending $60,000); AE-Group ($5,000); Volunteers ($2,214); Project H2O Academy and partners ($30,000) The project goals were to design, construct, and assess a treatment wetland, retrofit Rinker’s pond within the city-owned plat, monitor water quality, and conduct plant surveys to test the effectiveness of treatment wetlands in stormwater management and habMayitat quality improvement. This project will engage the residents into public education programs in order to help them enhance their awareness of issues of and solutions to stormwater associated problems.

Figure 1 in Eradication of African sacred ibis (Threskiornis aethiopicus) from South Florida, USA: a collaborative early detection and rapid response case study

Figure 1. Map of Florida (left) and southeastern Florida (right) where a successful eradication of African Sacred Ibis (Threskiornis aethiopicus) took place in 2008. Early detection at the Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge by a University researcher prompted a concerted effort to capture birds and employ the scout technique on two transmitter affixed birds. The scout method and reported species sightings resulted in identifying additional roost locations (4) where shooting operations took place.

(C) Mean weekly captures of adults on yellow sticky-card traps behind buttonwood and schefflera plants. Symbols represent means ± SD. An asterisk (*) indicates a significant difference from the other weeks according to 1-way ANOVAs and t-test comparisons at P ≤ 0.05. Mean weekly temperatures (T °C) and relative humidity (RH %) for the 3 mo period are shown parallel to the X-axis (FAWN 2007).

Fig. 1. Experimental setups. (A) Population estimates and dispersal from rose to buttonwood and schefflera. Darkest grey represents rose, whereas the 2 lighter grey shades represent buttonwood or schefflera with the same shade of grey representing the same plant species. (B) Flight behavior during the day. Circles represent potted rose plants in 11 L containers. Small black rectangles denote locations of yellow sticky-card traps relative to each plot.
