The National Science Foundation is providing a four-year $4.75 million renewal of the FIU Institute of Environment’s Florida Coastal Everglades Long Term Ecological Research (FCE LTER) program.
This marks the fourth renewal since the program’s founding in 2000. For two decades, FIU researchers and their partners have collected data on water quality, plant and animal communities and ecosystem function from a network of research sites in Everglades National Park.
“The FCE LTER is invaluable to our understanding of how the Everglades is changing because it provides long-term data documenting changes that take place over years to decades,” said Evelyn Gaiser, the Endowed George Barley Eminent Scholars Chair and FIU biological sciences professor who has led the program since 2007.

Brothers by Blood takes place in Philadelphia, and picks up with eight-year-old Peter Flood after he helplessly watches on as his little sister is killed by a neighbourâs reckless driving. Tormented with grief and resentment, his father finds revenge as the only solution, leaving lasting generational wounds.
Thirty years later, Peter still wrestles with the guilt he feels over his sisterâs death and his fatherâs vengeance. As he tries to distance himself from the criminal family business, his cousin, Michael, becomes more powerful in the hierarchy. Bonded by blood, neither man can escape violence as they are dragged further into a chilling cycle of betrayal and retribution. You can find our review here.
