Raw seawater temperature data from a subtidal habitat in Elands Bay, 18 October 2023 to 13 February 2024
To better understand the physiological effects of climate change and ocean acidification on marine organisms, information on the environmental conditions experienced in their natural habitats is required. Data from long-term monitoring studies capture in situ variability of environmental parameters that are used to relate experimental findings with field conditions. Elands Bay on the west coast of South Africa is a key location for such research and monitoring. It is a popular location for...

A temperature sensor close to the intake provides temperature measurements of the incoming water (T1). The temperature of the water inside the...
Raw seawater temperature data from the long-term monitoring of the microhabitats of intertidal invertebrates in Sea Point, 27 January to 27 February 2023
To better understand the physiological effects of marine invertebrates to changing environmental conditions, long-term monitoring which captures the natural variability of environmental parameters is required. In this way, experimental findings can be related back to field conditions, and better predictions can be made as to how marine invertebrates, particularly in the harsh intertidal, will fair with rising temperature. In May 2020, Cape Sea Urchins, Parechinus angulosus, were collected...
