USGS Water-Year Summary 2023

251457080395800 TAYLOR SLOUGH WETLAND AT E146 NEAR HOMESTEAD, FL

LOCATION - Lat 25°15'09.15", long 80°40'58.32" referenced to North American Datum of 1983, Miami-Dade County, FL, Hydrologic Unit 03090202, approximately 13 mi southwest of Pine Island in Taylor Slough of Everglades National Park.

DRAINAGE AREA - Indeterminate.

REVISIONS HISTORY - WRD-US-2010, site 251457080395800: 2008, minimum gage-height for the period of record. WRD-US-2010, site 251457080395800: 2008, maximum and minimum gage-height for the 2008 water year. The revised figures of gage height supersedes that published in the previous reports: WRD-US-2008, 2009 site 251457080395800.

SURFACE-WATER RECORDS

PERIOD OF RECORD - October 2003 to September 2011. January 2021 to current.

GAGE - Satellite data collection platform with water salinity and temperature sensor.

REMARKS - Records excellent. During periods of missing record, values may be higher or lower than the listed extremes. During the dry season this site normally dries out. Gage height records 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, 1.46 ft Aug. 27, 2005; minimum, -0.73 ft Feb. 11, 12, 2008 (last recorded gage height as wetland water levels declined).

WATER-QUALITY RECORDS

PERIOD OF RECORD - SALINITY: October 2003 to September 2011. January 2021 to current.
SPECIFIC CONDUCTANCE: October 2003 to September 2011. January 2021 to current.
WATER TEMPERATURE: October 2003 to September 2011. January 2021 to current.

INSTRUMENTATION - Water-quality monitor near the bottom.

REMARKS - Specific conductance and salinity record excellent. Salinity is computed from corrected specific conductance data using a rating in the NWIS database. Water temperature record excellent. During periods of missing record values may exceed listed extremes. Specific conductance and water temperature records are available in files of the U.S. Geological Survey. Specific conductance, salinity, 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 - SALINITY: Maximum recorded, 2.8 ppt May 31, 2009 and June 1, 2009; minimum recorded, 0.0 September 20, 2005. SPECIFIC CONDUCTANCE: Maximum recorded, 5,230 (uS/cm @25C) June 1, 2009; minimum recorded, 121 (uS/cm @25C) Sept. 20, 2005. WATER TEMPERATURE: Maximum recorded, 40.4°C June 5, 6, 2010; minimum recorded, 6.7°C Jan. 11, 2010.
