Abstract 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 a collection of processed and raw subsurface temperatures from UTRs located off Karange Island North.
