Raw temperature data for long-term observations of bottom temperatures at Elands Bay (October 1990 - December 1990)

Here we present raw temperatures from Underwater Temperature Recorders (UTRs) located at a depth of 2.5m off Elands Bay (32.3167°S 18.3200°E), along the west coast of South Africa, between 26 October 1990 and 12 December 1990. Note that the data that falls outside of these dates is not from the deployment. 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.
