Abstract

Water temperature in the river and streams are important for water quality aspects altering the ecology and affecting the survival and habitat of different freshwater flora and fauna. Higher temperatures are hence undesirable in such an environment. This data provides documentation of temperature data of the Logan River, UT using a database structure and a jupyter notebook for extracting and visualizing those data. The visualization of maximum temperature variation for each site for the data period and the month of July shows higher temperatures in Sites 2 (near Mendon Road), 13 (near Blacksmiths fork), and 3 (near Main street) which is not suitable for coldwater fish. The distribution of average temperature variations however shows the temperature within the range of requirement ( less than 20oC).
