% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 11991 % Primary Name: SIAN CHINA % Record Type: TAVG % Country: China % Latitude: 34.25000 +/- 0.00050 % Longitude: 108.91600 +/- 0.00050 % Elevation (m): 416.00 +/- 0.05 % # of Months: 8 % % IDs: gsod - 749342-99999 % icao - RSIA % usaf - 749342 % % Sources: Global Summary of the Day % % Site Hash: 59fa006b6b5fca451c162759ff220ddb % Raw Data Hash: 1e75518ed9e7cc377370653bba0aed55 % Adj Data Hash: f132b9d7d0732070ca1adef960fa74fd % % The data for this station is presented below in several columns and in % several forms. The temperature values are reported as "raw", % "adjusted", and "regional expectation". % % The "raw" values reflect the observations as originally ingested by % the Berkeley Earth system from one or more originating archive(s). % These "raw" values may reflect the merger of more than one temperature % time series if multiple archives reported values for this location. % Alongside the raw data we have also provided a flag indicating which % values failed initial quality control checks. A further column % dates at which the raw data may be subject to continuity "breaks" % due to documented station moves (denoted "1"), prolonged measurement % gaps (denoted "2"), documented time of observation changes (denoted "3") % and other empirically determined inhomogeneities (denoted "4"). % % In many cases, raw temperature data contains a number of artifacts, % caused by issues such as typographical errors, instrumentation changes, % station moves, and urban or agricultural development near the station. % The Berkeley Earth analysis process attempts to identify and estimate % the impact of various kinds of data quality problems by comparing each % time series to neighboring series. At the end of the analysis process, % the "adjusted" data is created as an estimate of what the weather at % this location might have looked like after removing apparent biases. % This "adjusted" data will generally to be free from quality control % issues and be regionally homogeneous. Some users may find this % "adjusted" data that attempts to remove apparent biases more % suitable for their needs, while other users may prefer to work % with raw values. % % Lastly, we have provided a "regional expectation" time series, based % on the Berkeley Earth expected temperatures in the neighborhood of the % station. This incorporates information from as many weather stations as % are available for the local region surrounding this location. Note % that the regional expectation may be a systematically a bit warmer or % colder than the weather stations by a few degrees due to differences % in mean elevation and other local characteristics. % % For each temperature time series, we have also included an "anomaly" % time series that removes both the seasonality and the long-term mean. % These anomalies may provide an easier way of seeing changes through % time. % % Reported temperatures are in Celsius and reflect monthly averages. As % these files are intended to be summaries for convenience, additional % information, including more detailed flagging and metadata, may be % available in our whole data set files. % % The Berkeley Earth analysis was run on 15-Nov-2013 19:55:48 % % Raw Data QC Continuity Adjusted Data Regional Expectation % Year, Month, Temperature, Anomaly, Failed, Breaks, Temperature, Anomaly, Temperature, Anomaly 1944 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.983 1.533 1944 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.506 -0.882 1944 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.103 -0.474 1944 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.292 -0.488 1944 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.424 1.862 1944 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.201 -0.152 1944 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.266 0.592 1944 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.515 -0.380 1944 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.588 0.426 1944 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.228 -3.415 1945 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.764 -1.297 1945 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -2.171 -2.769 1945 3 9.169 0.199 1 0 NaN NaN 5.676 -0.773 1945 4 16.419 1.510 0 0 16.419 1.510 14.099 1.711 1945 5 22.599 2.501 0 0 22.599 2.501 19.408 1.831 1945 6 27.672 2.371 0 0 27.672 2.371 24.644 1.863 1945 7 26.944 -0.138 0 0 26.944 -0.138 24.512 -0.050 1945 8 27.505 1.632 0 0 27.505 1.632 25.028 1.675 1945 9 20.643 0.448 0 0 20.643 0.448 18.388 0.714 1945 10 14.418 0.002 0 0 14.418 0.002 12.475 0.580 1945 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.047 2.885 1945 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.329 0.485 1946 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.409 2.059 1946 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.607 3.009 1946 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.996 -1.454 1946 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.929 2.541 1946 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.934 -0.643 1946 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.352 -0.428 1946 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.567 0.004 1946 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.395 1.043 1946 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.552 -0.121 1946 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.155 1.260
