Abstract Here we present a collection of raw and processed temperatures from Underwater Temperature Recorders (UTRs) located off Nosy Iranja, Madagascar. At selected sites around Southern Africa, UTRs have been used to obtain long-term records of bottom temperatures in the nearshore environment, at depths ranging from 2m to 34m.
