Climate Change and Ecosystem Services of Florida’s Largest Water Body: Lake Okeechobee by Karl Havens

“… Future climate change could result in higher temperatures and greater evaporative water loss in Florida. If these changes are not compensated for by more rainfall, the state’s largest water body, Lake Okeechobee, could experience prolonged periods of very low water levels and catastrophic loss of its ecosystem services, which are the benefits that people receive from ecosystems. …”
