Sea surface temperature (SST) data at Shell Island from April - October 2016

Abiotic data were collected to assess the environmental conditions that coincided with the 2016 mass bleaching event documented at Shell island (Shenton Bluff), Cygnet Bay, Kimberley region, northwestern Australia. Temperature is of particular importance because heat stress is one of the key drivers of coral bleaching. Water temperature was recorded every 15 min by HOBO U22 v2 temperature loggers (±0.2°C) in both intertidal and subtidal environments from September 2015 until October 2016.
