“Species Pollution” in Florida: A Cross-Section of Invasive Vertebrate Issues and Management Responses

The state of Florida as among the two worst invasive species problems in the USA. Besides the sheer numbers of established exotic species in Florida, many present novel difficulties for management, or have other characteristics making effective management extremely challenging. Moreover, initiation of management action requires more than recognition by experts that a potentially harmful species has become established. It also requires the political will along with concomitant resources and appropriate personnel to develop effective methods and apply them. We illustrate various aspects of the situation in Florida with examples of invasive vertebrates, the problems they pose(d), and management approaches to the problems.

Review of Desalination and Concentrate Management Issues for Increasing Drinking Water Supplies

These treatment processes create a highly concentrated waste stream in which the principal constituents are dissolved solids.
