Field Trip to the Eastern Cape for K5/1799

Field Trip for retrieval of data from air and water temperature data loggers located on farms and in rivers in a range of locations across the Eastern Cape and a few parts of the Western Cape, for a project on water temperature and river ecology.

Water Temperature Loggers are housed in metal casings and attached to rocks or tree roots, and secured by steel cables. They needed to be retrieved and data downloaded and then replaced in the river. Air temperature loggers were removed and replaced with new instruments.










All logging instruments will be permanently removed in early 2011 when the project draws to completion.
