This edition in the Monroe County health almanac series, which was launched with publication of the first Monroe County Community Health Almanac in 2013, is packed with statistics and tables from a wide range of reliable sources at the local, county, state and federal levels. In addition to statistical updates found in the Florida Department of Health's Community Health Assessment Resource Tool Set (CHARTS), we've tapped into the U.S. Census/American Community Survey for core data on health and socioeconomic figures on the Florida Keys as current as 2015. We've also developed special pages and sections spotlighting Monroe County-specific issues, programs, campaigns and achievements impacting public health. We hope these pages will not only educate our readership on the various factors impacting public health across the Florida Keys, but also inspire discussion and additional partnerships in the best interest of making Monroe County and its residents as healthy as possible. One of these special sections profiles tobacco prevention and cessation efforts countywide in the 10 years since funding was restored to the program through a statewide referendum in 2006.

    Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary Water Quality Monitoring Project 1998 Annual Report Principal Investigators Ronald D. Jones and Joseph N. Boyer Southeast Environmental Research Program Florida International University Miami, FL 33199 US EPA Contract #X994621-94-0 This is contribution #81 of the Southeast Environmental Research Program at Florida International University. Table of Contents I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY II. PROJECT BACKGROUND III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION IV. LIST OF APPENDICES I. Executive Summary This report serves as a summary of our efforts to date in the execution of the water quality monitoring program for the FKNMS. Last year we added 4 sampling sites and made minor adjustments to six others to establish water quality sampling within some of the Sanctuary Preservation Areas and Ecological Reserves. We have received 11 requests for data by outside researchers working in the FKNMS of which one has resulted in a master's thesis. Two scientific manuscripts have been submitted for publication: one is a book chapter in Linkages Between Ecosystems: the South Florida Hydroscape, St. Lucie Press; the other is in special issue of Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science on visualization in coastal marine science. Another manuscript is being prepared in conjunction with the FKNMS seagrass monitoring program for submission next year. We also maintain a web site at http://www.fiu.edu/~serp/jrpp/wqmn/ datamaps/datamaps.html where data from the FKNMS is integrated with the other parts of the SERP water quality network (Florida Bay, Whitewater Bay, Biscayne Bay, Ten Thousand Islands, and SW Florida Shelf) and displayed as downloadable contour maps. The period of record for this report is March 95 - October 98 and includes data from 13 quarterly sampling events at 154 stations within the FKNMS including the Dry Tortugas National Park.
