  • Blue-Green Algal Bloom Weekly Update Reporting June 26 - July 1, 2020

    BLUE-GREEN ALGAL BLOOM WEEKLY UPDATE REPORTING JUNE 26 - JULY 1, 2020 SUMMARY There were 14 reported site visits in the past six days (6/26-7/1), with 16 samples collected. Algal bloom conditions were observed by the samplers at 11 sites. Satellite imagery from 6/29 shows bloom potential in Lake Okeechobee on approximately 45% coverage concentrated in the center of the lake, while visible portions of the Caloosahatchee and St. Lucie rivers and estuaries show no observable bloom activity. Over the course of the week, the area of potential algal bloom has decreased in open waters and intensified along the northwestern and northeastern shorelines. Satellite imagery from 6/29 for the St. Johns River is partially obscured by cloud cover, but shows little bloom potential in visible portions of Lake George or on the mainstem of the St. Johns River downstream of Lake George. The imagery indicates there may be an uptick on some of the lakes associated with the St. Johns River System. Please keep in mind that bloom potential is subject to change due to rapidly changing environmental conditions or satellite inconsistencies (i.e., wind, rain, temperature or stage). On 6/29, South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) staff sampled the C43 Canal – Upstream of S77, C43 – Upstream of S79 and Lake Okeechobee – S308C (Lakeside). The Lake Okeechobee – S308C sample and C43 Canal – Upstream of S79 were both dominated by Microcystis aeruginosa, while the C43 Canal – Upstream of S77 had no dominant algal taxon. No cyanotoxins were detected in these three samples. On 6/29, the St.

    BLUE-GREEN ALGAL BLOOM WEEKLY UPDATE REPORTING MARCH 26 - APRIL 1, 2021 SUMMARY There were 12 reported site visits in the past seven days (3/26 – 4/1), with 12 samples collected. Algal bloom conditions were observed by the samplers at seven of the sites. The satellite imagery for Lake Okeechobee and the Caloosahatchee and St. Lucie estuaries from 3/30 showed low bloom potential on visible portions of Lake Okeechobee or either estuary. The best available satellite imagery for the St. Johns River from 3/26 showed no bloom potential on Lake George or visible portions of the St. Johns River; however, satellite imagery from 3/26 was heavily obscured by cloud cover. Please keep in mind that bloom potential is subject to change due to rapidly changing environmental conditions or satellite inconsistencies (i.e., wind, rain, temperature or stage). On 3/29, South Florida Water Management District staff collected a sample from the C43 Canal – S77 (Upstream). The sample was dominated by Microcystis aeruginosa and had a trace level [0.42 parts per billion (ppb)] of microcystins detected. On 3/29, Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) staff collected a sample from Lake Okeechobee – S308 (Lakeside) and at the C44 Canal – S80. The Lake Okeechobee – S308 (Lakeside) sample was dominated by Microcystis aeruginosa and had a trace level (0.79 ppb) of microcystins detected. The C44 Canal – S80 sample had no dominant algal taxon and had a trace level (0.34 ppb) of microcystins detected. On 3/29, Highlands County staff collected a sample from Huckleberry Lake – Canal Entrance.

  • Florida Historical Uarterly

    Florida Historical Uarterly

    The Florida Historical uarterly APRIL 1970 PUBLISHED BY THE FLORIDA HISTORICAL SOCIETY FRONT COVER “A View of Pensacola in West Florida” is a black and white engraving published and dedicated by George Gauld to Sir William Burnaby, rear admiral and commander of the British fleet at Jamaica. From the British ensigns on the vessels and the flag flying from the flagstaff, this is obviously a picture of Pensacola during the British period. Since Gauld’s name is not mentioned in any reference sources as an engraver, and since such a skill is not mentioned in his book, it is unlikely that he was the engraver of this picture, but he probably drew the sketch of the scene from which it was made. The engraving is in the Prints and Photographs Division, Library of Congress. Gauld, surveyor of the coasts of Florida, was born in 1732 at Ardbrack, Bamffshire, and he was educated at King’s College, Aberdeen. In 1763 he was appointed to make a survey of all newly acquired English territory in the West Indies, and in March of the following year he sailed aboard the Tartar for Jamaica to join Burnaby’s fleet. In August 1764 he accompanied Sir John Lindsay to Pensacola and he may have made a sketch of the harbor at that time. He was a friend of Philip Pittman, author of The Present State of the European Settlements on the Mississippi . (1770), and Thomas Hutchins whose An Historical Narrative and Topogaphical Description of Louisiana, and West-Florida was published in 1784. They helped him draft charts and plans of West Florida.
