Summary
Abstract: The sheet flow over the Buttonwood Embankment during periods of high flow is an unknown element of the water budget for the Everglades. An ongoing project to estimate the flows over the embankment through modeling will require water-level and water velocity data measured at the embankment to accurately estimate simulated flows over this physical land feature. The actual measurement of water ... View entire text
