Here are the first results we can share from the Skärgårdscentrum Korpoström
These will be updated regularly with the help of the Knattelabbet
To help you compare this year with previous ones, we’ve also included temperature curves from the past four years, measured at Skärgårdscentrum Korpoström.
So far, water temperatures remain within the normal range.
Shown are recorded temperatures (°C; solid black lines) at the Korpoström pier at 1 m depth. This dataset was analyzed on the occurrences of heatwaves and cold spells after Hobday et al. (2016), based on modelling using 2006 - 2021 climatological values from Seili at the University of Turku (grey solid line). The thresholds for heatwaves (i.e., 90th percentile) and cold-spells (i.e., 10th percentile) are represented as dotted lines. Temperatures above the climatological values, but below the 90th percentile are shown in orange, whereas temperatures above the 90th percentile are shown in red. Temperatures below the climatological trend, but above the 10th percentile are shown in light-blue, whereas temperatures below the 10th percentile are shown in dark-blue.
