Book Description
The hypothesis suggests that there may be vertical fractures and solution channels throughout the Floridan Aquifer System (FAS) that cause ground water from the upper and lower Floridan aquifers to interact with one another. The FAS is separated into three different hydrostratigraphic units, the upper Floridan aquifer, middle-confining unit, and the lower Floridan aquifer. This paper summarizes the hydrogeologic framework of the FAS underlying southwest Florida. Stable isotopes (2H, 18O) and uncorrected Radiocarbon (14C) data were used to define two different water types within the FAS and the possible interaction between the two aquifers. The South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) collected 42 samples from the Floridan aquifer at 16 sites. Plots of 2H and 18O were used to define the two different groundwaters that make up the FAS and to discover if there is any evidence of interaction between the two aquifers. Uncorrected 14C data were used to verify the different groundwaters within the FAS by dating them and to show a generalized direction of flow in each hydrostratigraphic unit.

Book Description
Land subsidence (LS) is a gradual settling or sudden sinking of the Earth's surface owing to subsurface movement of earth materials. More than 80% of the identified LS in the nation is due to our exploitation of underground water (UW). This report illustrates the 3 basic mechanisms by which human influence on UW causes land subsidence: compaction of aquifer systems, dewatering of organic soils, and mass wasting through dissolution and collapse of susceptible earth materials. Also examines the role that water-management groups play in mitigating subsidence damages. Color and B&W photos, maps, and drawings.
