Long-term observations of hourly bottom temperatures at Paternoster, South Africa
Here we present a collection of raw and processed temperatures from Underwater Temperature Recorders (UTRs) located off Paternoster, South Africa. 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.

Simulated advection patterns of Engraulis encrasicolus and Sardinops sagax larvae across South Africa's inshore Marine Protected Areas
Larval anchovy and sardine dispersal patterns in South Africa's exclusive economic zone (2010 - 2014) by Rasehlomi et al. (2025), published in Frontiers in Marine Science, investigates the dispersal of larval anchovy and sardine (https://doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2024.1508479). We simulated larval dispersal patterns using a simplified model within the Java-based ICHTHYOP particle tracking tool. This model compared outputs from the 3km grid resolution CROCO model and the 8km-resolution Global...
SACOFS-West Hindcast coastal ocean model dataset of temperature, salinity and currents for False Bay, Table Bay and St Helena Bay from 1993 to 2019
The South African Coastal Ocean Forecast System West (SACOFS) is run using the Coastal and Regional Ocean COmmunity (CROCO) modelling system. The SACOFS-West model domain encompasses St. Helena Bay, Table Bay and False Bay, located on the west coast of South Africa (14.50° to 20.00° E and -36.09° to -29.13° S). The model curvilinear grid has a variable horizontal grid resolution (0.35 – 4 km) which increases toward the coast. The model has 30 terrain-following vertical levels. The output is...
