Short summary
Due to ocean warming, coral reef ecosystems are strongly impacted by dystrophic events and corals experiencing increasing frequencies of bleaching events. In situ observation remains the best alternative for accurate characterization of trends and extremes in these shallow environments. This paper presents the coastal temperature dataset of the ReefTEMPS monitoring network, which spreads over multiple Pacific Island countries and territories (PICTs) in the western and central South Pacific.
