Raw temperature data for long-term observations of Bottom Temperatures at Knysna (March 1995 - July 1995)

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 7m off Knysna (34.0763°S 23.0602°E), along the south coast of Southern Africa, between 21 March 1995 and 03 July 1995. Note that the data that falls outside of these dates is not from the deployment, and that for some...

Daily data from Port Nolloth weather station, May 2018 to January 2021

Coastal, land based automatic weather stations situated in the West Coast of South Africa; Cape Columbine, Elands Bay and Port Nolloth have been actively collecting data for various project since 1982 until today at different locations. These instruments provide useful meteorological information for understanding coastal dynamics such as upwelling, ocean current movements and air sea exchange.
