Abstract

Surface Water Temperatures can provide indicators of climate change and associated ecological responses. These are needed to inform regulation and the design and delivery of ecosystem management conservation and restoration targets prescribed by the Water Framework and Habitats Directives among others. Ecological responses to temperature change are known to vary with water body type and geographic location, but studies of the impacts of climate change on aquatic ecosystems in England and Wales have been relatively few, possibly because of an absence of widely available temperature data. This Temperature Archive project aims to generate a database and a methodology able to support a wider assessment of ecological responses to climate change and to encourage studies of possible impacts of future warming.
