Water temperature data is collected for different reasons and in different locations. Time series of surface water temperatures can provide indicators of climate change and associated ecological responses. An archive was created in 2007 as part of a research project, and is a unique collation of Natural Resource Wales and The Environment Agencies water temperature data from more than 30,000 sites across England & Wales. The archive contains water temperature data (up to 2007) and site metadata. The archive contains water temperature data (up to 2007) and site metadata. Most sites have records starting from the 1980s.

Mae data tymheredd dŵr yn cael ei gasglu a'i storio gan Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru am wahanol resymau ac mewn gwahanol leoliadau. Gall cyfresi amser o dymheredd arwyneb dŵr ddangos newid hinsawdd ac ymatebion ecolegol cysylltiol. Crëwyd archif yn 2007 fel rhan o brosiect ymchwil, ac mae'n goladiad unigryw rhwng data tymheredd Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru ac Asiantaethau'r Amgylchedd o fwy na 30,000 safle ar draws Cymru a Lloegr. Mae'r archif yn cynnwys data tymheredd dŵr (hyd at 2007) a metadata safle. Mae gan y rhan fwyaf o safleoedd gofnodion sy'n cychwyn o'r 1980au.

Lineage

The water temperature data are available in two main types; spot samples from routine monitoring (e.g. monthly) and high resolution samples (e.g. every 15 minutes). The database was created using Microsoft Access 2003 but has a simple query based front end. As part of the science project about 1 in 10 sites were analysed to assess trends, and images of these graphs are embedded within the archive and linked to sites for information. The archive can be interrogated to find out where water temperature data exist, how frequently sampling occurs and the length of each record. In addition, sites have information about water body type e.g. river, lake or canal.
