This dataset contains optical and physical data collected in the Bay of Bengal from 2014-11-19 to 2015-10-31. These data include irradiance and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include Data Logger. These data were collected by Karl D. Castillo of University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as part of the "Investigating the influence of thermal history on coral growth response to recent and predicted end-of-century ocean warming across a cascade of ecological scales (Thermal History and Coral Growth)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2019-12-11.

The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO:

in situ temperature data

Dataset Description:
This dataset contains temperature and light data obtained from in situ HOBO V2 data loggers situated at each study site.

These data were used in a coral study in Baumann et al. (2016) https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0162098.
