N1 - Funding Information: In this special issue, we report efforts to characterize and interpret nutrient dynamics and their implications throughout the food web along a gradient of freshwater to marine habitats in a subtropical oligotrophic ecosystem. The papers included here describe results obtained by studies conducted in Everglades National Park, Florida, USA, as part of work for the Florida Coastal Everglades (FCE) Long-term Ecological Research (LTER) program funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation in 1999. This muli-investigator project contrasts nutrient dynamics in two transects connecting freshwater-to-marine habitats along separate drainages in southern Florida that contrast in the nutrient status of the marine end and in volume of freshwater flow. At the outset of our project, we hypothesized that these factors, but particularly the relative levels of phosphorus limitation of the marine ends of the drainages, were responsible for markedly different levels of productivity in the estuarine zones of the salinity gradients. Funding Information: The production of this special issue on Everglades’ research through the Florida Coastal Everglades (FCE) Long Term Ecological Research program received financial support from the Southeast Environmental Research Center’s Endowment through the George Barley Everglades Fund and the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians Endowment for Everglades Studies. The contributing authors express their gratitude to our donors for their continued support. National Science Foundation grant DEB-9901514 provides funding for research activities of the FCE-LTER project. This is contribution #281 of the Southeast Environmental Research Center at Florida International University.
