This dataset has been extracted as part of an exercise to assemble "all" Cefas
Temperature Data and publish it in a Data paper. It is one of 17 Cefas data
sources assembled. Diurnal and seasonal changes in water temperature in South
Wales estuaries and saltmarshes. Data were collected in 1995 and 1996 from
three estuarine locations in South Wales during a study of the thermal
experience and tolerance of estuarine animals. The data comprise hourly
records of temperature in brackish water where the depth is <1 metre at low
tide. Three point locations in the Loughor Estuary, Oxwich Bay (Nicholstan
Pill) and Swansea Bay (Black Pill) in South Wales. Positions were Loughor (51°
37.82’ N, 04° 13.54’ W), Oxwich Bay (51° 34.18’N, 04° 08.68’W) and Swansea Bay
(51° 35.92’ N, 03° 59.61’ W) (WGS84, Plate carrée).
