Shinn EA, Reese RS, Reich CD. 1994. Fate and Pathways of Injection-Well Effluent in the Florida Keys. St. Petersberg, FL
This report addresses the fate of sewage nutrient injected into the porous limestone beneath the Florida Keys. It researches if nutrient levels are elevated in the ground water beneath the Florida Keys or beneath offshore reef areas. Also, it looks into if ground waters are migrating laterally and diffusing upward into areas of coral growth.
