USGS Water-Year Summary 2023

253044080555900 EDEN 3 IN EVERGLADES NATIONAL PARK, FL

LOCATION - Lat 25°30'43.65", long 80°55'59.35" referenced to North American Datum of 1983, Monroe County, FL, Hydrologic Unit 03090202, located approximately 21 mi south of Tamiami Trail and Highway 41, west of the Miami-Dade County line.

DRAINAGE AREA - Indeterminate.

SURFACE-WATER RECORDS

PERIOD OF RECORD - November 2005 to current year.

GAGE - Satellite data collection platform with shallow-vented pressure transducer. Datum of gage is North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88).

REMARKS - During periods in the dry season, water levels are too low or non-existent for sensor to record. Gage height data are available in the files of the U.S. Geological Survey. Gage height 15 minute data can also be accessed online at http://sofia.usgs.gov/. Daily values are available online at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwis.

EXTREMES FOR PERIOD OF RECORD - GAGE HEIGHT: Maximum gage height, 2.42 ft Sept. 13, 2017; minimum, indeterminate, gage-height below sensor for many days during the dry season.

WATER-QUALITY RECORDS

PERIOD OF RECORD - SALINITY: October 2010 to June 2020. Discontinued. SPECIFIC CONDUCTANCE: November 2005 to June 2020. Discontinued. WATER TEMPERATURE: November 2005 to June 2020. Discontinued.

INSTRUMENTATION - Water-quality monitor.

REMARKS - During periods in the dry season, water levels are too low or non-existent for sensor to record. Specific conductance and water temperature records are available in the files of the U.S. Geological Survey. Specific conductance and water temperature 15 minute data can also be accessed online at http://sofia.usgs.gov/. Daily values are available online at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwis.

EXTREMES FOR PERIOD OF RECORD - SPECIFIC CONDUCTANCE: Maximum recorded, 3,303 uS/cm @25°C Apr. 7, 2012; minimum recorded, 193 uS/cm @25°C May 12, 2019. SALINITY: Maximum recorded, 1.6 ppt Apr. 7, 2012; minimum recorded, 0.1 ppt Sept. 14, 23, 2011, many days during water year 2012 and several days during water year 2019. WATER TEMPERATURE: Maximum recorded, 36.5°C Aug. 13, 2006; minimum recorded, 7.7°C Jan. 3, 2008.
