  • The Sunshine State
    1 The Sunshine State Visitors driving into Florida pass signs that offer a greeting and men- tion the weather they may expect: “Welcome to Florida—The Sunshine State.” It is the sunshine that lures so many people to Florida. Florida has been officially known as the Sunshine State since 1970, but other nicknames include the Peninsula State, the Everglades State, the Alliga- tor State, and the Orange State. Florida is the land of sunshine, beaches, theme parks, wildlife, and much more. Florida’s warm, sunnyproof weather has created a population of tourists, retirees, refugees from the cold North, and visitors from overseas, but Florida’s weather isn’t always warm and sunny. Every Floridian knows to expect rumbling thunderstorms arising from the hot and humid air lifted by sea breezes that sometimes turn violent during summer after- noons. These storms, which are sometimes deadly, throw out bolts of lightning like the Greek god Thor, striking whomever may be in their path. At times the weather is hot and dry for months, as Floridians all over the state saw in 1998 when the parched land ignited into wildfires. Thick smoke from fires at night clings close to the ground and mixes with fog, creating a deadly mix when it drifts over roadways. During the winter, Arctic air masses originating in Siberia migrate across the dark and frozen northlands to Alaska and Canada and plunge southward, bringing a frigid chill to Florida. Snow is not on the mind of most Flo- ridians unless they are headed to the ski slopes or hear news of a bliz- zard up north.

A small-craft channel, marked by private daybeacons, extends through the shoal area from Key West to the N side of Boca Grande Key. The Nautical charts are a fundamental tool of marine navigation. They show channel has a reported controlling depth of 5 feet except S of Mule Key, water depths, obstructions, buoys, other aids to navigation, and much near Key West, where the controlling depth is 2 feet.

  • Anemones, Form Associations with Several Invertebrates Such As Cleaner Shrimps (Limbaugh Et Al
    2009 Quick Look Report: Miller et al. VII. Anemone and Corallimorpharian Density Background Most historical and recent studies of Caribbean reef fauna, including those in the Florida Keys, have generally focused on either stony corals or fishes. This is not surprising, given that corals are primary framework builders, while fishes, along with certain shellfish species (e.g. queen conch and spiny lobster) are generally the most economically important fishery targets. In the Florida Keys, however, commercial marine-life fisheries and aquarium hobbyists remove an incredible diversity and number of invertebrates and fishes (Bohnsack et al. 1994). Otherwise known as the marine ornamental fishery, aquarium fisheries target a diversity of fish, invertebrate, and algal species, in addition to sand and live rock from West Palm Beach to Key West (FWCC 2001). State and Federal waters near Key West and Marathon in the Florida Keys constitute 94% of the total fishes and invertebrates removed in southeast Florida for the marine aquarium trade. Commercial data do not include an undocumented effort from recreational fishers, nor are data available concerning species abundance patterns and population trends relative to fishing effort (NOAA 1996). Key Largo has been protected from marine aquarium trade species collection since 1960 in John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, followed by the protection in federal waters in 1975 with the establishment of Key Largo National Marine Sanctuary. The Looe Key area has been protected since 1981, as well as Everglades National Park (Florida Bay), portions of the Dry Tortugas area, Biscayne National Park, and Fish and Wildlife Service management areas. There is a paucity of basic ecological information for most Florida Keys anemone and corallimorpharian (Cnidaria, Anthozoa) species, and even fewer studies have explored the population effects of exploitation.

The bouys mentioned were whited with bird excreta and were used either for resting or roosting by sea-birds. 2. Sterna hirundo. TERN; BLACK-HEADEDTERN; REDSHANK.- One seen off the Marquesasand many others about West Cudjoe's and Snipe Keys. June 22 they were found in numbersbreeding on Hailer's Rock. One egg contained a young bird about to hatch. 3. Sterna antillarum. KILLING-PETER.--Breedingin some numbers together with the former on Hailer's Rock. From an ornithologist's point of view this is one of the most interestingplaces visited. It is a low, small, flat island of sand, with a rocky foundation,off Bahia Honda Key. The vegetationconsists of a low growth of bushes,with here and there more or less sand. The southern end is of broken or excavated rock leaving numeroustide-pools with an abundant supply of food in the form of anchovies,etc., for most water birds. Three eggs were found to be the exceptionin the nest of this species,seldom more than two occurring, and sometimesonly one. The nest is a mere shallow depressionin the sand, and those found were all situated more or lessto the lee of the island.

Gregory Griffin Copyright 2010 President Theodore Roosevelt established The Key West National Wildlife Refuge in 1908 as a preserve and breeding ground for native birds and other wildlife. This preserve was one of the earliest Federal refuges in the United States and is located in the Gulf of Mexico beginning a few miles west of Key West. The refuge encompasses more than 200,000 acres with only 2,000 acres of land. The area is home to more than 250 species of birds and is important for sea turtle nesting. The islands are predominately mangrove with a few beaches and salt ponds. The Lakes Passage region is part of the Refuge. The first stilt houses were built in the early 1960’s approximately seven miles west of Key West in The Nora and John Koenig Stilt House off Man Key.
