Instruments

Onset HOBO TidbiT v2 (UTBI-001) temperature logger

Supplied Name: HOBO TidBit v.2

Supplied Description:

Temperatures of the eastern and western faces of each block were recorded at 2 min intervals by one Hobo Tidbit v. 2 datalogger (Onset Computer) per face, adjacent to barnacle prey.

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.
