A Note About Citations and References
While the authors compiling this Guide relied primarily on their first-hand observations at Florida springs, they also made frequent use of the rich and expanding body of research, publications, other individuals’ descriptions, archival material, Internet sites, and other sources.  Wherever other sources were used, there should be full and proper citation/acknowledgement of those sources.  Any citation errors or oversights are unintentional; the authors invite feedback and corrections.

The spring essays are by Joe Follman and taken from radio commentaries he recorded for WFSU-FM in Tallahassee, Florida from 1996-2000.
