Fla. Water Mgmt. Fla. Water Mgmt Dist. St. John's River Water Mgmt Dist. The surface water flow is typically unidirectional, the soils poorly drained and the terrain flat. Soils of wetlands included in this model can be mineral or organic.
Flats can connect depressional systems to each other during high water periods by overland flow.
They are primarily precipitation driven, but groundwater and surficial aquifers play an important role in their function. These systems supply water to other systems such as bays or rivers. Headwaters, hydric pine flatwoods, cypress sloughs and wet prairie are in this regional subclass. Organize Regional Assessment Team 1. Identify Assessment Team members 2.
