Scientists from three universities have planted several permanent data loggers into seashore rocks in Teluk Bahang, Penang, at the intertidal zone to get data on global warming.

Thirty professors and students from Hong Kong University, Northeastern University in Boston, United States, and Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) have chosen Teluk Bahang shores to be the site for recording data on climate change.
