Updated: 2010-08-31 14:26:37With its vast 1.5 million acres of mangrove swamps, sawgrass prairies and subtropical jungles, could the Florida Everglades--the famous river of grass--be affected by the Gulf oil spill? While current estimates are that little if any oil entered the Loop Current or reached the Everglades, this area is a significant national natural resource, and to study the effects of the spill on seagrasses and mangrove forests in and near the Everglades, the National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a rapid response grant to researchers affiliated with NSF's Florida Coastal Everglades Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) site.".......Climate Change and Decline of Horseshoe Crabs
