In this article 12 major estuarine areas of south Florida are identified. A physical description, summary of research, discussion of problems, and survey of current management studies are presented for each estuary including Everglades National Park. A list of references for the region and for each estuary is provided. These studies and the level of current interest indicate that major efforts are underway to analyze and resolve the problems of south Florida's estuaries, resulting in a substantial increase in our knowledge and our ability to manage these systems. Study Type: Qualitative, environmental review.
