Water temperature measurements from Durleigh Reservoir 2018
This dataset contains water temperature measurements at two different locations in Durleigh Reservoir in Somerset, England. Water temperatures were measured using RBR SoloT thermistors (measured in deg C) and HOBO TidbiT v2 loggers (measured in deg F). The dataset consists of water temperature measurements from two locations at Durleigh reservoir between 22 February 2018 and 5 October 2018. Measurements were taken at 10 minute intervals.

Quality and validity
- Lineage
- The first site, labelled location 2, is closer to the artificial mixing devices (surface mixers) installed in the reservoir (60 m away) and deeper, with a water depth of 6 m when on deployment (latitude: 51.1210, longitude: -3.0403). The second site, labelled location 3, is farther away from the artificial mixing devices installed in the reservoir (435 m away) and in a shallower region, with a water depth of 4 m on deployment (latitude: 51.1215, longitude: -3.0445). At location 2, RBR SoloT thermistors (measured in deg C) were positioned at 1 m intervals from the surface (0 m depth) to the bottom of the water column (6 m). However, in the dataset temperature measurements from thermistors positioned at 1 m, 2 m, and 3 m are missing due to corrupted files. At location 3, HOBO TidbiT v2 loggers (measured in deg F) were positioned at 1 m intervals from the surface (0 m depth) to the bottom of the water column (4 m depth). All water temperature measurements were taken at 10-minute intervals. Both temperature chains consisted of a buoy (A2 size) attached to a 10 kg weight using a rope, and the thermistors were attached onto the rope. All thermistors were deployed between 22 February and 5 October 2018.
