“…Marine disturbances like tidal extension and saltwater intrusion are rapidly influencing coastal ecosystem biogeochemistry (Ensign and Noe , Tully et al ). Although restoration projects are increasing freshwater flows to freshwater and marine wetlands of the Everglades (Arik et al ), sea‐level rise and storm surge continue to increase saltwater intrusion throughout estuarine and brackish wetlands (Saha et al , Zapata‐Rios and Price , Sandoval et al ). Different regions of the Everglades were considerably drier and wetter than under pre‐drainage conditions, as short‐hydroperiod marshes upstream of canals have longer inundation and long‐hydroperiod marshes downstream of canals have shorter inundation periods (McVoy et al , Kominoski et al ).…”

“…ENP is located at the southern terminus of the GEE flow path and encompasses an oligotrophic ecotone at the nexus of marsh and mangroves which is highly sensitive to changes in salinity and nutrients (Briceño et al, 2014; Michot et al, 2011; Rivera‐Monroy et al, 2011). SRS covers 1,700 km 2 (Saha et al, 2012) and is the primary drainage of ENP, while TS is considerably smaller, with the southern portion covering just 446 km 2 (Sandoval et al, 2016). For the freshwater marsh sites, SRS is characterized by deep organic‐rich peat soils and longer hydro‐periods, while TS sites are located in wet prairies with shallow, less organic‐rich marl soils and much shorter hydro‐periods (Obeysekera et al, 2014; Saha et al, 2012; Sandoval et al, 2016).…”

“…Inflow rates were calculated for SRS as monthly average discharge for the sum of the four S12 water control structures located along the northern border of ENP ( Figure 1). TS inflows were calculated as monthly average discharge for the sum of 23 culverts running underneath the ENP park road, following Sandoval et al (2016). Water depth values used for cumulative sum analysis were calculated from water level and surface elevation data collected from specific EDEN gages (P36 for SRS2; TSB for TS2,) rather than transect-wide spatial averages.…”

“…On the basis of empirical measurements, the low elevation and flat topography of south Florida produces a gentle hydraulic gradient of 0.00005 for the Everglades region (Price & Swart, 2006). The near horizontal slope causes surface water to move slowly in the sloughs before it drains into Florida Bay and the Gulf of Mexico (Sandoval, 2016).…”
