% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database.

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 2004 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.177 -0.419 2004 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.649 -1.636 2004 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.928 2.602 2004 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.637 -0.419 2004 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.920 1.733 2004 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 25.387 0.577 2004 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.780 0.448 2004 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 25.406 -0.632 2004 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.496 0.200 2004 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.619 2.621 2004 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.496 2.815 2004 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.513 -0.264 2005 1 8.794 2.736 0 0 8.794 2.736 8.572 1.977 2005 2 10.986 3.239 1 0 NaN NaN 9.796 1.511 2005 3 11.699 -0.089 0 0 11.699 -0.089 11.613 -0.712 2005 4 15.694 -0.825 0 0 15.694 -0.825 16.190 -0.866 2005 5 19.552 -1.098 0 0 19.552 -1.098 19.795 -1.392 2005 6 24.489 0.217 1 0 NaN NaN 25.147 0.338 2005 7 25.717 -0.078 0 0 25.717 -0.078 26.962 0.630 2005 8 25.692 0.191 0 0 25.692 0.191 26.916 0.878 2005 9 24.513 1.755 0 0 24.513 1.755 25.562 2.266 2005 10 16.996 0.536 0 0 16.996 0.536 17.804 0.806 2005 11 12.943 1.798 0 0 12.943 1.798 13.581 1.899 2005 12 6.441 -0.799 0 0 6.441 -0.799 6.420 -1.357 2006 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.145 3.549 2006 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.141 -1.144 2006 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.032 0.707 2006 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.684 2.627 2006 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.288 0.101 2006 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 25.777 0.968 2006 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 27.704 1.372 2006 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 27.984 1.947 2006 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.304 0.008 2006 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.367 -0.631 2006 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.031 0.350 2006 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.211 2.434
