Title: Temperature at coral reefs (Curacao, Grand Cayman, Grenada) recorded daily by Hobo temperature loggers from 2008-2011 (NCEI Accession 0278403)
Abstract: This dataset contains physical data collected at Caribbean_Coral_Reefs during deployment Coral_Bleaching_Dives_Weil in the Caribbean Sea from 2008-01-01 to 2011-02-23. These data include water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include HOBO Onset Pro v2 temperature logger. These data were collected by Ernesto F. Weil of University of Puerto Rico - Mayaguez as part of the "Impact of the 2010 Caribbean Coral Bleaching Event: Assessing Changes in Coral Immune Function (Climate_Corals_Bleach_Disease)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2022-05-13.

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