This dataset includes temperature data from three sites in the Florida Reef Tract, one each in the upper, middle and lower Keys.
Temperature data loggers were programmed to record hourly water temperatures and secured to the base of a Dendrogyra cylindrus colony at each site. Data loggers were changed out at each site visit and data was later downloaded.Gaps in data are due to lost pendant data loggers or data logger malfunction and are noted in data set as ‘nd’ (no data).
