Long-term observations of hourly bottom temperatures at Mossel Bay (November 2002 - November 2003)

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 29 November 2002 and 17 November 2003. 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.
