Description:Port Everglades is a major port on Atlantic Coast of Florida that is adjacent to significant and ecologically important coral reef ecosystems. Heavy ship traffic (including container, military and cruise ships) has the potential to chronically impact ecosystem health through potential discharges, anti-fouling paints and physical damage, but periodic acute dredging events, i.e., to improve or maintain the ship channels, may also be major stressors to the ecosystem.
