title: Modelling CO2 emissions of cultivated and rewetted peat soils with SWAP-ANIMO - Dataset

description: Three locations in Europe (wet river valley (Denmark), coastal peatland (The Netherlands) and broad river floodplain (Switzerland)) were selected for which two to three years of measurements of hydrological variables and CO2 exchange fluxes were available for some period between 2015 and 2023. The hydrology, grass growth and CO2 fluxes of these sites were modelled with the SWAP-ANIMO model using the available measurement period for model input and calibration. Model simulations were used to improve the understanding of the hydrological drivers of each site and to obtain estimates of the different pools contributing to the measured CO2 fluxes using a period of 10 years (2014-2023). Rewetting was considered either by calibration on direct measurements of an actual rewetting measure (Denmark, The Netherlands) or extrapolation of the reference simulation (Switzerland). Also, the potential impact of climate change on the rate of peat oxidation was modelled for these sites for both the reference and rewetting measure. 

The dataset contains the relevant detailed, daily model output of the 10 year simulation period and aggregated, yearly model output of the scenario simulations which are detailed in the corresponding report (van de Craats et al., 2024), available at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.14041243.

title: Long-term observations of daily bottom temperatures at Port Nolloth (July 1992 - November 1992)

description: Processed daily subsurface temperatures from UTRs located at a depth of 5m off Port Nolloth (29.2524°S; 16.8671°E).
description: At selected sites around Southern Africa, Underwater Tempearture Recorders (UTRs) have been used to obtain long-term records of bottom temperature in the nearshore environment, at depths ranging from 2m to 34m. Here we present processed daily subsurface temperatures from UTRs located at a depth of 5m off Port Nolloth (29.2524°S; 16.8671°E), along the west coast of South Africa, between 24 July 1992 and 26 November 1992.
description: A subsurface-mounted, Hugrun Seamon Mini Underwater Temperature Recorder (UTR) was deployed at a depth of 5m off Port Nolloth (29.2524°S; 16.8671°E), along the west coast of South Africa. The instrument measured hourly temperature readings between 24 July 1992 and 26 November 1992. These hourly values were averaged to daily means. Daily values were only generated for days on which there were 75 % or more hourly readings.

title: Seawater temperature in the microhabitats of intertidal marine invertebrates in Sea Point, 09 November to 08 December 2021

description: Conservation Physiology Programme
description: To better understand the physiological effects of marine invertebrates to changing environmental conditions, long-term monitoring which captures the natural variability of environmental parameters is required. In this way, experimental findings can be related back to field conditions, and better predictions can be made as to how marine invertebrates, particularly in the harsh intertidal, will fair with rising temperature. In May 2020, Cape Sea Urchins, Parechinus angulosus, were collected from intertidal rock pools at Sea Point, which is situated along the southwest coast of South Africa. After chronic incubation in low pH conditions at the Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment's (DFFE) Sea Point Research Aquarium, their response to thermal stress was investigated in recent experimental trials. To calculate the thermal window for these marine invertebrates, both habitat temperatures, as well as their threshold temperatures are required. The latter was obtained by examining the Critical Thermal Maximum temperatures (CTmax), i.e. the temperatures at which organisms respond with uncoordinated mobility, whereas habitat temperatures are available through the deployment of temperature loggers in the intertidal pools inhabited by these organisms. Three prominent rockpools were chosen Sea Point, Cape Town (>5 m apart) to install HOBO TidbiT temperature loggers. Two loggers were placed in each pool. Here we present the cleaned up version of temperature measurements from Pool 1: 33.920317 S, 18.379417 E, logger 10687237 and 20195550; Pool 2: 33.920267 S, 18.379417 E, logger 10687240 and 20195543; Pool 3: 33.920167 S, 18.379717 E, logger 20195539 and 20195574, from 09 November to 08 December 2021.
description: The details of each pool are captured in the 'README' file. The loggers were set to record temperature every 5 minutes.The current design is attaching loggers via cable ties to I-bolts drilled into the substrate. All loggers were positioned facing the sea. Data were extracted from the loggers using HOBOware Pro software and exported into Excel files. Times are GMT+2. The data available are the raw files (all temperatures even outside of the rockpools) and 'clean' files where only the temperatures recorded once loggers were placed into the rockpools are provided. Only where possible, data were downloaded and loggers deployed on a monthly basis. Nonetheless, clean data are presented on a monthly basis for each pool (x2 loggers per pool). Where required, to avoid the inclusion of any 'handling' temperatures in the clean datasets, the temperatures extracted are from ten minutes once loggers are deployed, and 10 minutes before they are removed to download data.

description: Between 2005 and 2015, multiple short-term studies were conducted to determine the characteristics of moorings deployed in a region heavily influenced by the strong Agulhas Current, and to examine circulation patterns across the continental shelf and slope off Port Edward, along the east coast of South Africa. Three moorings (P1, P2, and P3) were deployed, just south of Port Edward at depths of 36m, 64m, and 162m, respectively, between September 2005 and September 2006, to measure currents and bottom temperatures across the inner shelf.

Here we present processed hourly bottom temperatures from an ADCP at a depth of 64m at location P2 (31.19710°S; 30.17555°E) on the inner shelf off Port Edward, between 08 September 2005 and 11 December 2005.
