Daily temperature measurements on restored oyster reefs in Quonochontaug Pond, RI from July-August 2018 and September-October 2018

Abstract:

Daily temperature measurements were collected on restored oyster reefs in Quonochontaug Pond, Rhode Island, USA in the summer (July-August) 2018 and the fall (September-October) of 2018. Bottom water temperatures were collected hourly during tray deployment using one Onset Tidbit v2 HOBO temperature logger per block in summer 2018 and one logger at both the edge and interior of 3 reefs (one per block) in fall 2018.

Methods & Sampling

These data were published in Davenport et al., 2022 (Restoration Ecology). All figure numbers mentioned refer to Davenport et al., 2022 (Restoration Ecology).

Bottom water temperatures were collected during experimental tray deployment at Quonochontaug Pond, Rhode Island, USA, (41.3 N, 71.7 W). One Onset Tidbit v2 HOBO temperature logger was used per block in the summer of 2018 (July 10-August 6) and one logger at both the edge and interior of 3 reefs (one per block) in the fall of 2018 (September 7-October 4) (Fig. S2). Water temperatures were collected hourly during tray deployment.

Data Processing Description

Data Processing:
Hourly temperatures were processed to average daily temperature (averaged by Julian day), maximum daily temperature (the maximum temperature recorded each day was selected), or minimum daily temperature (the minimum temperature recorded each day was selected).

BCO-DMO Processing:
- Adjusted field/parameter names to comply with BCO-DMO naming conventions
- Added a conventional header with dataset name, PI names, version date
- Reorganized data, creating one row for each block-reef-treat-Julian day combination and separate columns for mean, maximum, and minimum temperature
- Values in the columns "temp_min", "temp_max", and "temp_mean" were rounded to 3 decimal places

Instruments

Onset HOBO TidbiT v2 (UTBI-001) temperature logger

Supplied Name: HOBO TidbiT v2 water temperature data logger

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Onset HOBO TidbiT v2 (UTBI-001) temperature logger

Acronym: HOBO TidBit v2

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/134/

Generic Description:

A temperature logger that measures temperatures over a wide temperature range. It is designed for outdoor and underwater environments and is waterproof to 300 m. A solar radiation shield is required to obtain accurate air temperature measurements in sunlight (RS1 or M-RSA Solar Radiation Shield). With an operational temperature range between -20 degrees Celsius and +70 degrees Celsius, the TidbiT v2 has an accuracy of +/-0.21 and a resolution of 0.02 degrees Celsius.

Parameters

Date and time formats are described in python strftime() syntax.
