Methods & Sampling

HOBO temperature loggers where deployed in tidally restricted pools in estuaries along the Atlantic coast of North America. Loggers were fastened to pipes that were dug into these pools.

Problem report:
In this data set, the temperature logger for Maine failed to log temperature data after September 6th. All other locations have complete data sets from March 11 until December 31, 2016.

Locations:
St. Augustine, Florida: 29.72642,-81.25772
Georgetown, South Carolina: 33.33183,-79.19994
Ft. Fisher, North Carolina: 33.959,-77.93283
Sippewissett, Massachusetts: 41.58939,-70.63797
Pine Point, Maine: 43.54261,-70.34497

Data Processing Description

No processing performed, these are the raw data from the temperature logger.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BCO-DMO Data Manager Processing Notes:

Data version 1: 2019-01-08
* added a conventional header with dataset name, PI name, version date
* modified parameter names to conform with BCO-DMO naming conventions
* blank values in this dataset are displayed as "nd" for "no data." nd is the default missing data identifier in the BCO-DMO system.
* ISO_DateTime_UTC added from local date and time column.
--------------------------------------
Data version 2: 2019-01-11
* Five Temperature columns were unpivoted into one temperature columns with new column "Site" which contains the location specified in the original column name.

Temp_Florida,Temp_South_Carolina,Temp_North_Carolina,Temp_Massachusetts,Temp_Maine ->
37.384,24.738,29.652,15.76,2.624

Temp,Site
37.384,Florida
24.738,South_Carolina
...

* Lat and lon columns added to the dataset
