begin extended in situ monitoring to capture reef - scale sea surface temperature and improve coral — sea
surface temperature calibrations and how these measurements relate to large - scale climate phenomena
«What is most important about this «thermometer» that we have developed is that
temperature calibration is not needed,» said physicist Juan Carlos Idrobo of the Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences, a DOE Office of Science User Facility at ORNL.
It was found that
the temperature calibration error was about 0.002 C at that point, clearly good enough for the stated accuracy of 0.005 C.
