Water Depths and Water Temperatures near Soil Surface from Taylor Slough, Everglades National Park (FCE LTER), Florida, USA, August 1999 - ongoing

Water depth (from August 1999 to present) and water temperature (from May 2021 to present) are recorded hourly at TS/Ph1a, TS/Ph2 and TS/Ph3 and every 30 minutes at TS/Ph6a and TS/Ph7a. Water depth is measured with pressure water level loggers (Infinities USA or HOBO) that record water height relative to the local soil surface. Water temperature near soil surface is measured with HOBO loggers. Note by IM (2021): The water meters at some of the TS sites have been moved over the years as boardwalks have been reconstructed. There is no set survey datum for these sites, so it is impossible to correct the data to an actual datum. For hydrologic applications, it may be better to use water level data from USGS stations.TS/Ph1a、TS/Ph2及TS/Ph3站点的水深（记录时段为1999年8月至今）与近地表水温（记录时段为2021年5月至今）以每小时为采集间隔；TS/Ph6a与TS/Ph7a站点的相关数据采集频次为每30分钟一次。水深数据通过压力式水位记录仪（美国Infinities品牌或HOBO品牌）获取，其记录的水位高度以当地地表为参照基准；近地表水温则采用HOBO记录仪进行监测。IM于2021年补充备注：多年来随栈道重建工程推进，部分TS站点的水位计曾多次迁移；且此类站点未设定统一的测量基准面，因此无法将采集数据校正至统一的实际基准面。针对水文应用场景，选用美国地质调查局（USGS）站点的水位数据或许更为适宜。
