Little Salt Spring

During January 2003, Professor Traci Ardren of the University of Miami and Professor Uzi Baram of New College of Florida inaugurated a terrestrial survey of the University of Miami's property in North Port, southern Sarasota County.

Background information on Little Salt Spring and the underwater excavations are available from the University of Miami and the Florida State University project.  The geology of the spring is discussed on the Florida Geological Survey.
