Long-term observations of daily bottom temperatures on the Prince Edward Island shelf at Mooring 1 (April 2014 - April 2015)

The South African component of the international South Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation project (SAMOC-SA) aims to characterise the time-mean and time-varying components of the SAMOC in the South Atlantic Ocean and monitor the variability of the main Southern Ocean frontal systems associated with the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), south of Africa. Here we present processed daily bottom temperature from an ADCP at location M1 (46.775°S; 37.900°E) on the Prince Edward Island...

Seawater temperature in the microhabitats of intertidal marine invertebrates in Sea Point, South Africa, 13 November to 29 November 2019

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...
