Abstract

Water temperature records for Acropora hyacinthus coral colonies located in either patch or fore reefs of the Palau Archipeglo from November 2017 to January 2020.

Temperature data loggers were deployed next to individual colonies of Acropora hyacinthus located in either patch or fore reefs of the Palau Archipeglo from November 2017 to January 2020. Multiple loggers were deployed on each reef (up to 5). Loggers were set to record water temperature every 10 minutes. Temperature data were trimmed at the very beginning and end of each recording so that all records have the same start and end point. Some records show missing data (labelled nd) because they were deployed at a later date or because they lost battery power towards the end of the deployment.

Location:
Patch and fore reefs of the Palau Archipelago, 7 N 134 E, depths ~0.5-6m
