% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 172816 % Primary Name: ALPINE % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: AK % Latitude: 70.34640 +/- 0.00005 % Longitude: -150.92830 +/- 0.00005 % Elevation (m): 5.18 +/- 0.15 % # of Months: 32 % % IDs: coop - 500235 % ghcnd - USC00500235 % ncdc - 30076589 % nws - APNA2 % % Sources: Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % Multi-network Metadata System % % Site Hash: 3b334eb206f8dd2beaf46695df6afd01 % Raw Data Hash: 726fce6af5e251b26464283fec652d7f % Adj Data Hash: 726fce6af5e251b26464283fec652d7f % % 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 2010 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -29.596 0.303 2010 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -26.794 4.714 2010 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -26.049 2.101 2010 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -12.586 6.292 2010 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.851 1.384 2010 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.638 0.397 2010 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.033 1.227 2010 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.956 2.428 2010 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.844 2.860 2010 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -8.659 3.233 2010 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -14.283 7.572 2010 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -30.056 -0.918 2011 1 -25.661 3.174 0 0 -25.661 3.174 -26.365 3.534 2011 2 -22.784 7.660 0 0 -22.784 7.660 -25.519 5.989 2011 3 -22.169 4.917 0 0 -22.169 4.917 -24.271 3.880 2011 4 -18.922 -1.107 0 0 -18.922 -1.107 -19.671 -0.793 2011 5 -4.261 -0.090 0 0 -4.261 -0.090 -3.491 1.744 2011 6 3.553 -2.751 0 0 3.553 -2.751 5.255 0.015 2011 7 9.745 -1.124 0 0 9.745 -1.124 11.057 1.251 2011 8 7.689 -0.902 0 0 7.689 -0.902 8.516 0.989 2011 9 2.863 1.816 0 0 2.863 1.816 2.346 2.363 2011 10 -4.919 5.909 0 0 -4.919 5.909 -8.009 3.883 2011 11 -21.153 -0.362 0 0 -21.153 -0.362 -24.214 -2.360 2011 12 -26.573 1.502 0 0 -26.573 1.502 -28.579 0.559 2012 1 -33.002 -4.166 0 0 -33.002 -4.166 -34.139 -4.240 2012 2 -25.593 4.851 0 0 -25.593 4.851 -27.464 4.044 2012 3 -33.168 -6.081 0 0 -33.168 -6.081 -34.341 -6.190 2012 4 -14.948 2.867 0 0 -14.948 2.867 -15.846 3.033 2012 5 -4.370 -0.199 0 0 -4.370 -0.199 -4.290 0.945 2012 6 6.722 0.417 0 0 6.722 0.417 7.535 2.294 2012 7 12.866 1.997 0 0 12.866 1.997 12.724 2.919 2012 8 11.608 3.017 0 0 11.608 3.017 10.715 3.188 2012 9 4.286 3.238 0 0 4.286 3.238 2.660 2.676 2012 10 -3.511 7.317 0 0 -3.511 7.317 -7.550 4.342 2012 11 -17.905 2.886 0 0 -17.905 2.886 -20.742 1.113 2012 12 -27.205 0.869 0 0 -27.205 0.869 -30.273 -1.135 2013 1 -27.019 1.816 0 0 -27.019 1.816 -28.015 1.884 2013 2 -30.889 -0.445 0 0 -30.889 -0.445 -32.897 -1.389 2013 3 -22.133 4.953 0 0 -22.133 4.953 -25.089 3.062 2013 4 -18.742 -0.927 0 0 -18.742 -0.927 -20.269 -1.391 2013 5 -5.268 -1.096 0 0 -5.268 -1.096 -5.640 -0.405 2013 6 8.340 2.036 0 0 8.340 2.036 8.098 2.857 2013 7 11.163 0.294 0 0 11.163 0.294 11.804 1.998 2013 8 8.352 -0.240 0 0 8.352 -0.240 8.915 1.388 2013 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.109 -0.093 2013 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -6.934 4.958
