Sommario/riassunto

Since statehood in 1845, Florida's story has been one of man's battle against water. The United States Fish and Wildlife Service has major responsibility for the protection and management of migratory and endangered fish and wildlife and their habitats. They have inventoried the nation's wetlands with the purpose of developing and disseminating comprehensive data concerning the characteristics and extent of wetlands. This report presents results of a study of wetland trends in Florida for the 10-year period from 1974 to 1984.
