  • BISCAYNE NATIONAL PARK the Florida Keys Begin with Soldier Key in the Northern Section of the Park and Continue to the South and West
    CHAPTER TWO: BACKGROUND HISTORY GEOLOGY AND PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY OF BISCAYNE NATIONAL PARK The Florida Keys begin with Soldier Key in the northern section of the Park and continue to the south and west. The upper Florida Keys (from Soldier to Big Pine Key) are the remains of a shallow coral patch reef that thrived one hundred thousand or more years ago, during the Pleistocene epoch. The ocean level subsided during the following glacial period, exposing the coral to die in the air and sunlight. The coral was transformed into a stone often called coral rock, but more correctly termed Key Largo limestone. The other limestones of the Florida peninsula are related to the Key Largo; all are basically soft limestones, but with different bases. The nearby Miami oolitic limestone, for example, was formed by the precipitation of calcium carbonate from seawater into tiny oval particles (oolites),2 while farther north along the Florida east coast the coquina of the Anastasia formation was formed around the shells of Pleistocene sea creatures. When the first aboriginal peoples arrived in South Florida approximately 10,000 years ago, Biscayne Bay was a freshwater marsh or lake that extended from the rocky hills of the present- day keys to the ridge that forms the current Florida coast. The retreat of the glaciers brought about a gradual rise in global sea levels and resulted in the inundation of the basin by seawater some 4,000 years ago. Two thousand years later, the rising waters levelled off, leaving the Florida Keys, mainland, and Biscayne Bay with something similar to their current appearance.3 The keys change.

  • Viral Pathogens and Microbial Indicators in the Canals of the Florida
    I! l ." i ,~ t ' VIRAL PATHOGENS AND MICROBIAL INDICATORS IN THE CANALS OF THE FLORIDA KEYS Dale W. Griffin, Charles J. Gibson III, Erin K. Lipp, Kelley Riley, John H Paul III and Joan B. Rose University ofSouth Florida Department ofMarine Sciences 140 1h Avenue South St. Petersburg, Florida 33701 ABSTRACT In order to access the microbial water quality in canal waters throughout the Florida Keys, a survey was conducted to determine the concentration of microbial fecal indicators and presence of human pathogenic microorganisms. Nineteen sites, including 17 canal sites and two nearshore water sites, were assayed for total coliforms, fecal coliforms, Escherichia coli, Clostridium per/ringens, enterococci, coliphages, F+ specific RNA coliphages, Giardia lamblia, Cryptosporidium parvum, and human enteric viruses (Polio, Coxsackie A, Coxsackie B, echoviruses, Hepatitis A viruses, Norwalk viruses and Small Round-Structured Viruses). Coliforms ranged from <1 to 1410, E.coli <1 to 130, Clostridium spp. <1 to 520 and enterococci from <1 to 800 colony forming units/100ml of sample. Two sites were positive for coliphage but no F+ specific phage were identified. The sites were ranked according to microbial water quality and compared to various water quality standards and guidelines. Seventy-nine percent of the sites were positive for the presence of enteroviruses by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (Polio, Coxsackie A, Coxsackie Band echoviruses). Sixty- three percent of the sites were positive for the presence of Hepatitis A viruses. Ten percent of the sites were positive for the presence of Norwalk viruses. One hundred percent of the sites were positive for at least one of the virus groups.

  • Archaeological Investigations on the Upper Florida Keys by JOHN M
    Archaeological Investigations On The Upper Florida Keys by JOHN M. GOGGIN D URING THE SUMMER of 1940 an archaeological survey was made of a portion of the Upper Florida Keys.' The area covered was from Virginia and Biscayne Keys on the north to Lower Mate- cumbe Key on the south, plus a portion of the west shore of Biscayne Bay. Summer is the least desirable time to attempt work in this area, but circumstances offered no other choice. The area in question was inhabited by the Tekesta* Indians.2 Ap- parently this tribe, like various others in the state, was more or less a political confederation of small local groups. There are many references to the presence of Indians on the Keys or "Los Martires" as the Spanish frequently called them, but few villages are named. Fontaneda does mention some towns, but they appear to have been located on the Lower Keys. In 1607 Governor Ibarra states that he received a visit from some chiefs, among whom were " . .. principal lords of the mouth of Miguel Mora." According to Swanton ".. this name was given to the opening between the Florida Mainland and the Keys on the eastern side." 3 This may be the present Card Sound. The one tribe or village that is men- tioned rather commonly is Matecumbe. This was probably located on the present Lower Matecumbe Key, because on many early maps it is called Old Matecumbe to differentiate it from Upper Matecumbe Key. The earliest mention is in 1573, when the Matecumbe Indians attained notice by killing a number of Spaniards.4 It was again mentioned about 1.

    Florida Keys Sea Heritage Journal VOL. 21 NO. 4 Summer 2011 USS SHARK OFFICIAL QUARTERLY PUBLICATION OF THE KEY WEST MARITIME HISTORICAL SOCIETY Oil and Gas Exploration in the Florida Keys By J. Gregory Griffin Copyright 2011 In 1938 Thomas Kenny had a contract for bridge and road repair on Bahia Honda Key. In the process of blasting in preparation for leveling the road, a large piece of rock was thrown out of the ground, and the excavation was almost immediately filled with oil. He reported his findings to the Overseas Road and Toll Bridge District Commission on January eighth. An examination of the land was made and compared to the soil found in the oil producing areas in Texas and Louisiana. Extensive surveys, geologists, and seismic tests followed with great expectation. This was the first direct evidence of the possibility of petroleum in the Florida Keys. Subsequently, fourteen exploratory oil wells were drilled in the Keys beginning around the time oil was discovered at the Sunniland Field in 1943 in Collier County. The Second World War ended in 1945 with the total victory of the Allies over the Axis powers Big Pine Key oil well in 1959. Photo credit: Pat Parks. of Germany and Japan.
