Title: Temperature data collected from loggers deployed at the Thalassia Experimental Network (TEN) sites in the Western Atlantic from 2018-2019 (NCEI Accession 0278560)
Abstract: This dataset contains physical data collected at Thalassia Experimental Network during deployment TEN_2018-2019 from 2018-04-18 to 2019-05-22. These data include water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include Onset HOBO Pendant Temperature/Light Data Logger. These data were collected by Kenneth Heck of Dauphin Island Sea Lab, James Douglass of Florida Gulf Coast University, Justin Campbell and Valerie J. Paul of Smithsonian Marine Station, and Andrew Altieri of University of Florida as part of the "Collaborative Research: The tropicalization of Western Atlantic seagrass beds (Tropicalization Seagrass Beds)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2021-06-30.

Supplementary information: Acquisition Description:
One logger was deployed at the initiation of the project, and continuously recorded temperature for the duration of the one-year subtidal caging experiment. The logger was cable-tied to a PVC post at the side of the array (next to the cages). Temperature readings were recorded every six minutes. Loggers were removed, replaced, and data were downloaded three times throughout the experiment.

Where logger data was unavailable (e.g. if a logger failed for an extended period of time), data was taken from nearby HOBO loggers that were unassociated with TEN. When no alternative HOBO loggers were available, data was filled in by accessing (NOAA) buoy temperature data, product of the National Data Buoy Center.
