Dataset extent

Long-term observations of hourly bottom temperatures at Mossel Bay (May 1996 - August 1996)

Here we present processed hourly subsurface temperatures from Underwater Temperature Recorders (UTRs) located at a depth of 8m off Mossel Bay (34.1767°S 22.1463°E), along the south coast of South Africa, between 02 May 1996 and 15 August 1996. At selected sites around Southern Africa, UTRs have been used to obtain long-term records of bottom temperature in the nearshore environment, at depths ranging from 2m to 34m.
