Located at the Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge, the Water Quality Office houses most of the staff in the Water Quality group. Scientists in this group conduct and oversee contracted water quality research on phosphorus levels in the Everglades. These NPS scientists, together with our sister agency, the US Fish and Wildlife Service, also take part in the DOI Everglades Program Team. This interagency team serves the DOI and its affiliates with increased scientific capacity related to the impacts of water quality on south Florida restoration efforts.
