At each station we recorded water temperatures with a digital thermometer, for accuracy a group member went knee deep in water to take the temperatures. The thermometer was submerged until the display on the device stopped changing. For the second week we measured off 100ft with a tape measure, then counted how many paces that was. We measured by paces the second week. Temperature remains pretty constant until site 17 where temperature dropped to 16.8C from 17.1C, station 17 was in the water.
Temperature remains pretty much the same after that.
From station 1, temperature stated at 17.4C down to 16.9C at station4. A significant change occurs at station 5 where temperature jumped to 17.6C a difference of .07C, station 5 was near rock formation. During this time, station 6 was in the water. Temperature remained fairly consistent through the rest of the stations. Many different variables could account for the different temperatures.
