Raw temperature data for long-term observations of bottom temperatures at Seychelles site A (December 2003 - April 2004)

At selected sites around Southern Africa, Underwater Temperature Recorders (UTRs) have been used to obtain long-term records of bottom temperature in the nearshore environment, at depths ranging from 2m to 34m. Here we present raw temperatures from UTRs located at a depth of 6.5m off Seychelles site A (04.3889°S 55.2372°E), along the east coast of Southern Africa, between 06 December 2003 and 09 April 2004. Note that for some deployments, two UTRs were deployed to simultaneously record bottom temperatures, and that the data that falls outside of these dates are not from the deployment.
