Description

Barnacle Field Temps - 2011-2012 temperatures from Argyle Creek, WA, USA

Methods & Sampling

Temperatures at Argyle Creek were measured every 15 minutes from June 2011 to August 2012 with a submersible temperature probe (HOBO U22 Water Temp Pro v2; Onset Computer Corporation, Bourne, MA, USA).
