Raw temperature data for long-term observations of bottom temperatures at Mossel Bay (August 2001 - November 2001)

Here we present raw 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 01 August 2001 and 20 November 2001. 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.
