National Coral Reef Monitoring Program: Water Temperature Data from Subsurface Temperature Recorders (STRs) recovered at coral reef sites in the Marianas Archipelago in 2022 (NCEI Accession 0284762)

Description

Water temperature data provided in this data set were collected using subsurface temperature recorders (STRs) recovered in 2022 from permanent coral reef sites in the Mariana Archipelago during the Pacific Reef Assessment and Monitoring Program cruise led by NOAA Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC), Ecosystem Sciences Division. The high-accuracy temperature loggers made by SeaBird Electronics (SBE) were deployed on the reef for a period of 3 years (or 8 years if the instruments deployed in 2014 were not recovered in 2017) at depths ranging from 0 to ~30 meters along depth transects at Ocean and Climate Change monitoring survey sites. When a STR was recovered, typically another STR was deployed in the same location. Raw data with an original sample interval ranging from 5 to 10 minutes were averaged hourly, and gaps of longer than one hour in the time-series, due to instrument failure or battery death, were padded with null values. Temperature data are archived by region and year recovered. For analysis purposes, temperature sensor deployments are grouped by site, and temperature data from successive deployments at each site are concatenated.
