|a Everglades National Park, established in 1947, is a subtropical region that covers
566,300 hectares (ha) of land and water at the extreme southern tip of Florida.
Terrestrial area, totaling 285,600 ha, is comprised of an estimated 133,000 ha of
mangrove and saltmarsh, 148,000 ha of prairie, and 8,000 ha of pineland (Klukas
1973). The pinelands and prairies have the highest fire frequencies and account for
most of the 182,000 ha that have burned since 1948.
The climate in south Florida is subtropical with alternating wet and dry seasons. Rainfall for 1979 totaled 134 cm (52.8 inches) at Royal Palm in Everglades National Park, but wide annual fluctuations between 76 cm and 254 cm (30 and 100 inches) may occur each et al. 1972). June to October is the wet season when water covers the soil of most community types, except hammocks and pinelands, and when most cloud-to-ground lightning occurs. November into Uay is the dry season, and the time when most man-caused fires occur. Freezing temperatures may occur during January and February. |
