Abstract
The purpose of this study is to provide a better basis for understanding manatee winter abundance and habitat use patterns along the northern limit of the species' range, the purposes of this study were to: a) document the degree and nature of manatee use at two Jacksonville power plants, b) determine the influence of air and water temperature on manatee use of the plants, c) identify and photograph individual manatees observed in the outfalls, d) document site fidelity, and e) document any local and/or long distance manatee movements.
