I want to specifically recognize four of our newer members for joining the Race Committee for CC #1: Roni and Steven Boomer; and Scott and Regina Swanson. I am told they showed great enthusiasm and commitment to the tasks assigned and learned a lot. We need more RC members, so if you have asked in the past to join us and no one got back with you, I apologize and will assure you we will find space for more “trainees” because we need the help!

  • Ecology of Pensacola
    Ecology of Pensacola Bay Chapter 1 - Environmental Setting Britta Hays Introduction: The climate, morphology and hydrodynamics of Pensacola Bay and its watershed greatly influences the presence and abundance of biological communities within the bay. Biological communities such as phytoplankton, seagrasses, marshes, zooplankton, benthos and fish respond to climate and hydrodynamic forcing. Climate: Pensacola Bay has a humid subtropical climate with generally warm temperatures (Thorpe et. al 1997). There is an average temperature of 11° C occurring in the coldest month, January, while the warmest months are July and August with an average temperature of 29° C. Winds are normally from the north/northwest in the fall and winter and the south/southwest in spring and summer. Annual rainfall varies from month to month and is heaviest in April, September and October and lightest in January, May and June. Annual precipitation ranges from 73-228 cm. The wettest years were 2005 and 2009 while the driest year was 2006. The warmest year was 2006 and the coolest was 2004 (NOAA). Hurricanes influence the area occasionally; the last major hurricanes were Ivan in 2004 and Dennis in 2005 which caused a great deal of damage to the area. The pattern of hurricane occurrence is about every five to ten years: Eloise(1975), Fredrick (1979), Elena (1985), Opal (1995), Ivan (2004), Dennis (2005) (NOAA). Figure 1-1.

  • Session 4: Picayune Strand: Everglades Restoration in Progress
    Pen Picayune Strand: NRLI seeks to impact Everglades Restoration decision making in Florida by creating a network of in Progress professionals prepared to effectively address natural resource issues through Director’s Corner collaborative leadership Jonathan Dain and conflict management. A critical mass? There is something I would like to highlight regarding this year’s NRLI sessions. It is not apparent without close examination, but it is exciting to consider. True, we hired a talented new project team member, Wendy-Lin Bartels, after the irreplaceable Bruce Delaney retired and, yes, we updated the curriculum a bit, but I refer to something else. As NRLI has grown, so has its ability to tap into the experiences of its alumni. Recent classes in particular have increasingly benefitted from alumni knowledge, connections, and support. If you are a Class XVI Fellow, you may notice that this year EVERY session involves NRLI alumni—yes, every one. The session on expansion of Port Everglades was made possible by alumni. Airboats on Rodman Reservoir—only because alumni arranged it. A custom tour of a Florida panhandle dairy—it would not have happened without dedicated and connected alumni. And the November session’s 3-hour visit (including an unforgettable swamp-buggy tour) to Picayune Strand, a restricted access Everglades restoration site—yes, again, alumni made it possible. Each month, NRLI Fellows get in depth personalized tours and the inside stories behind places and issues. People speak to our group because they know and trust our alumni. And our alumni help out because they want to share a behind the scenes view of their important work.
