Critical Ecosystems Studies Initiative. Everglades National Park
This report series includes final products that were generated by projects funded in full or in part by the Critical Ecosystems Studies Initiative (CESI). CESI is a Department of Interior science funding program managed by Everglades National Park. The projects of the CESI program have the same goal of building a sound knowledge base of comprehensive ecological science to inform restoration planners involved in Greater Everglades restoration activities.
