About the Florida Springs Institute
The Howard T. Odum Florida Springs Institute is a program of Florida’s Eden, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to uniting 30 counties in north Florida for the purpose of protecting natural resources and using environmental and creative assets to build a sustainable and prosperous economy.
The Florida Springs Institute was founded in May 2010 to accelerate the restoration and protection of Florida’s springs. Florida’s Eden provides the organizational framework within which the Florida Springs Institute will operate until such time as the Institute can flourish on its own.
The Florida Springs Institute is directed by Dr. Robert L. Knight who carried out landmark ecological research at Silver Springs, Florida, under the direction of Dr. Odum in 1979-1980 and follow-up studies in 2004-2006 and 2009-2010. The work of the Florida Springs Institute is funded entirely through grants and private donations.
