<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Florida is divided into 10 regional districts which are subdivided into 71 sub-regional to local provinces. This classification system is based on landform similarities, the relationships to surrounding features, and geologic processes affecting the area, particularly coastal, fluvial, and karst processes. Districts have as few as two provinces up to 17 provinces. District and province description sections include Characteristics and Importance, Location, Important Geological Strata, Physiographic Characteristics and Boundaries, and Important Landforms and Sites. Geomorphic districts from earlier work in Alabama and Georgia were extended into Florida where appropriate.The “Florida Geomorphology Atlas” is a digital publication that includes a website and interactive WebApp with text descriptions for districts and provinces and accompanying spatial polygon data. The maps and data are not intended for site-specific purposes; however, they provide an informative and conceptual framework for understanding the landforms of Florida.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
