Grade 9: 27,211 Fire is an important element in the natural maintenance of the Everglades the majority of fires are caused by lightning strikes from thunderstorms during the wet season Their effects are largely superficial and serve to foster specific plant growth: sawgrass will burn above water but the roots are preserved underneath Fire in the sawgrass marshes serves to keep out larger bushes and trees and releases nutrients from decaying plant matter more efficiently than decomposition Whereas in the wet season dead plant matter and the tips of grasses and trees are burned in the dry season the fire may be fed by organic peat and burn deeply destroying root systems Fires are confined by existing water and rainfall it takes approximately 225 years for one foot (.30 m) of peat to develop but in some locations the peat is less dense than it should be for the 5,000 years of the Everglades' existence Scientists indicate fire as the cause; it is also cited as the reason for the black color of Everglades muck Layers of charcoal have been detected in the peat in portions of the Everglades that indicate the region endured severe fires for years at a time although this trend seems to have abated since the last occurrence in 940 BCE.

Andrea Nagy Although the Big Cypress is the largest growth of cypress swamps in South Florida cypress swamps can be found near the Atlantic Coastal Ridge and between Lake Okeechobee and the Eastern flatwoods as well as in sawgrass marshes Cypresses are deciduous conifers that are uniquely adapted to thrive in flooded conditions with buttressed trunks and root projections that protrude out of the water called "knees" Bald cypress trees grow in formations with the tallest and thickest trunks in the center rooted in the deepest peat As the peat thins out cypresses grow smaller and thinner giving the small forest the appearance of a dome from the outside They also grow in strands slightly elevated on a ridge of limestone bordered on either side by sloughs Other hardwood trees can be found in cypress domes such as red maple swamp bay and pop ash If cypresses are removed the hardwoods take over and the ecosystem is recategorized as a mixed swamp forest, The Panthers football team plays at the on-campus Riccardo Silva Stadium 11.3 Colleges and universities. .
