Overview The oceans are the major source of the atmospheric moisture that is obtained through evaporation Climatic zones vary with latitude; the warmest zones stretch across the Atlantic north of the equator the coldest zones are in high latitudes with the coldest regions corresponding to the areas covered by sea ice Ocean currents influence climate by transporting warm and cold waters to other regions the winds that are cooled or warmed when blowing over these currents influence adjacent land areas; Julia Tuttle Causeway Wynwood/Edgewater and Miami Beach 1959, 6.5.3 Everglades Agricultural Area, Hollywood Silver Service Tri-Rail From October to June the surface is usually covered with sea ice in the Labrador Sea Denmark Strait and Baltic Sea. After the Second Seminole War ended in 1842 William English re-established a plantation started by his uncle on the Miami River He charted the "Village of Miami" on the south bank of the Miami River and sold several plots of land in 1844 Miami became the county seat and six years later a census reported there were ninety-six residents in the area the Third Seminole War was not as destructive as the second but it slowed the settlement of southeast Florida At the end of the war a few of the soldiers stayed; Miami's tropical weather allows for year-round outdoor activities the city has numerous marinas rivers bays canals and the Atlantic Ocean which make boating sailing and fishing popular outdoor activities Biscayne Bay has numerous coral reefs that make snorkeling and scuba diving popular There are over 80 parks and gardens in the city the largest and most popular parks are Bayfront Park and Museum Park (located in the heart of Downtown and the location of the American Airlines Arena and Bayside Marketplace) Tropical Park Peacock Park Virginia Key and Watson Island, Hispanic Business (since 1998) and Hispanic Trends (since 2003) have placed the College of Business among the top 25 business schools for Hispanics in 2008 it was ranked #8, Best-Catholic-Colleges.com 2016: ranked Barry University's School of Social Work as No 3 in its list of Best 25 Catholic Social Work Schools in the country.

Florida Grand Opera Miami Southwest Florida 3 Demographics Cypress swamps can be found throughout the Everglades but the largest covers most of Collier County the Big Cypress Swamp is located to the west of the sawgrass prairies and sloughs and it is commonly called "The Big Cypress." the name refers to its area rather than the height or diameter of the trees; at its most conservative estimate the swamp measures 1,200 square miles (3,100 km2) but the hydrologic boundary of the Big Cypress can be calculated at over 2,400 square miles (6,200 km2) Most of the Big Cypress sits atop a bedrock covered by a thinner layer of limestone the limestone underneath the Big Cypress contains quartz which creates sandy soil that hosts a variety of vegetation different from what is found in other areas of the Everglades the basin for the Big Cypress receives on average 55 inches (140 cm) of water in the wet season. The underlying bedrock or limestone of the Everglades basin affects the hydroperiod or how long an area within the region stays flooded throughout the year Longer hydroperiods are possible in areas that were submerged beneath seawater for longer periods of time while the geology of Florida was forming More water is held within the porous ooids and limestone than older types of rock that spent more time above sea level a hydroperiod of ten months or more fosters growth of sawgrass whereas a shorter hydroperiod of six months or less promotes beds of periphyton a growth of algae and other microscopic organisms There are only two types of soil in the Everglades peat and marl Where there are longer hydroperiods peat builds up over hundreds or thousands of years due to many generations of decaying plant matter Where periphyton grows the soil develops into marl which is more calcitic in composition, Tropical Park 1 University of Miami 12,818 Northeast Florida. .
