6 FLORIDA GEOLOGICAL SURVEY

 Daily records of rainfall were collected at 24 stations located as
shown in the figures on pages 2 and 5. Some of these records
are from U. S. Weather Bureau long-term stations. Short-term
rainfall records were collected at stream or well data-collection
stations during part of the investigation using standard 8-inch
gages with tipping-bucket attachments to the water-stage
recorders.
 Surface-water characteristics of the area were determined by
collecting stage, streamflow, and chemical-quality data at gaging
stations and at miscellaneous sites; by making field and aerial
reconnaissance of the area; and by studying maps and aerial
photographs.
 All surface-water data-collection stations are presented in table
1 and located in figure 2 and in the figure on page 5. The grid
coordinate number shown in column 2 of table 1 is based on the
