% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 12441 % Primary Name: PAOTAI % Record Type: TAVG % Country: China % Latitude: 44.81700 +/- 0.00050 % Longitude: 85.60000 +/- 0.00050 % Elevation (m): 323.92 +/- 10.00 % # of Months: 11 % % IDs: gsod - 513520-99999 % usaf - 513520 % % Sources: Global Summary of the Day % % Site Hash: 5765aea8e3723f6546e300a29d86d5f8 % Raw Data Hash: dab463cb82ed700154dad6e497cb6708 % Adj Data Hash: 69ba03f1b0fbf4a12a9d1ab1ed87f864 % % 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 1955 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.493 1.231 1955 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.112 -0.513 1955 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.524 -0.204 1955 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.184 1.450 1955 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -12.107 3.208 1956 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -24.355 -4.102 1956 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -17.641 -1.273 1956 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -6.266 -1.709 1956 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.584 1.318 1956 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.726 -0.499 1956 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.396 -2.319 1956 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.468 1.811 1956 8 20.171 -1.877 1 0 NaN NaN 18.822 -0.440 1956 9 17.414 1.003 1 0 NaN NaN 13.826 0.201 1956 10 7.842 0.329 1 0 NaN NaN 5.195 0.467 1956 11 -0.910 1.938 0 0 -0.910 1.938 -3.780 1.854 1956 12 -13.491 -0.962 0 0 -13.491 -0.962 -15.561 -0.247 1957 1 -20.087 -2.620 0 0 -20.087 -2.620 -21.183 -0.930 1957 2 -17.655 -4.072 1 0 NaN NaN -18.521 -2.153 1957 3 -0.263 1.508 1 0 NaN NaN -3.386 1.171 1957 4 8.820 -1.232 0 0 8.820 -1.232 5.078 -2.188 1957 5 16.026 -0.984 0 0 16.026 -0.984 11.876 -2.349 1957 6 25.222 3.722 1 0 NaN NaN 20.680 1.965 1957 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.970 -0.687 1957 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.831 -0.431 1957 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.681 1.056 1957 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.434 0.706 1957 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.278 1.356 1957 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -11.159 4.155 1958 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -19.235 1.018 1958 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -13.452 2.916 1958 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -2.541 2.016 1958 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.325 0.059 1958 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.708 -2.516 1958 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.419 -2.296
