Raw temperature data for long-term observations of bottom temperatures at Paternoster (September 1992 - January 1993)

Here we present raw temperatures from Underwater Temperature Recorders (UTRs) located at a depth of 2m off Paternoster (32.7050°S 17.927°E), along the west coast of South Africa, between 14 September 1992 and 21 January 1993. 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.
