Sediment temperature was measured using submersible Onset TidbiT® recording thermistor thermometers at eelgrass (Zostera marina, Z. japonica) mid-rhizome root depth (~5 cm) at 6 stations on a transect from ~MLLW (mean lower low water) at the channel edge to near MHHW (mean higher high water) at the shore on Idaho Flat in Yaquina Bay, OR, from July 1999 through July 2006.

The semi-diurnal mean tide range is ~2m, so that the Z. marina habitat (subtidal to +~1.0m relative to MLLW)...
