The fresh water species Synedra ulna (Nitzsch) Ehrenberg and Synedra rumpen are recorded for the first time in the study area and abundant of epiphytic diatoms species. The Synedra ulna and Synedra rumpen species belonging to the genus Synedra are illustrious by tiny taxonomic features. The detailed morphology of the species Synedra ulna (Nitzsch) Ehrenberg and Synedra rumpen with the length and breadth of the valve, number of striae, shape of the apices, shape of the psedudoraphe and shape of the central area are examined.  <#LINE#> @ @ Kelly M.G. and Whitton B.A., Biological monitoring of eutrophication in rivers.

This study helps to understand the level of threat to the coastal Florida and to visualize potential impacts from sea level rise for different scenarios using the data available in the form of Digital Elevation Models available online such as SRTM and Aster DEM data. The area of impact is calculated and its performance is compared between datas using ArcGIS software. <#LINE#> @ @ Hervé Le Treut, Richard Somerville, Historical Overview of Climate Change Science, Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Cambridge University Press, Cambridge,  101 (2007) @No $ @ @ Location of Florida, http://en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/Florida, last modified on 25 May 2012 at 19:21(2012) @No $ @ @ Location and area of Florida, http://www.city-data.com/states/Florida-Location-size-and- extent.html (2013) @No $ @ @ Natural Resources Defence Council, ‘Feeling the heat in Florida’, a report by Florida Climate Alliance, 1-19 (2001) @No $ @ @ Jordan Charles L., Florida's Weather and Climate: Implications for Water,  in Edward A.
