% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 18416 % Primary Name: SWAKOPMUND % Record Type: TAVG % Country: Namibia % Latitude: -22.67500 +/- 0.01000 % Longitude: 14.53000 +/- 0.00500 % Elevation (m): 11.00 +/- 1.50 % # of Months: 24 % % IDs: ca - 411 % ghcnd - WA007350110 % % Sources: Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % Colonial Archive % % Site Hash: aafa0d4dfd797074d01cb0e214609081 % Raw Data Hash: 98edacdc68ab3de60fd0262da8878584 % Adj Data Hash: dd0497bb37d4ed274f029cc1a98dc7df % % 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 1910 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.628 0.122 1910 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.465 -0.161 1910 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.839 -0.241 1910 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.273 0.486 1910 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.569 0.720 1910 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.457 -0.537 1910 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.893 -0.101 1910 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.639 -0.356 1910 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.090 -0.045 1910 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.507 -0.706 1910 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.553 -1.168 1910 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.974 0.124 1911 1 17.400 -1.981 1 0 NaN NaN 21.078 -1.429 1911 2 17.500 -2.001 1 0 NaN NaN 22.011 -0.615 1911 3 17.700 -2.255 0 0 17.700 -2.255 21.658 -1.422 1911 4 14.200 -4.462 1 0 NaN NaN 21.355 -0.432 1911 5 12.650 -4.073 1 0 NaN NaN 19.432 -0.416 1911 6 16.500 1.631 0 0 16.500 1.631 18.779 0.785 1911 7 13.600 -0.269 0 0 13.600 -0.269 16.258 -0.736 1911 8 10.850 -3.020 1 0 NaN NaN 15.796 -1.200 1911 9 13.050 -1.959 1 0 NaN NaN 17.479 -0.656 1911 10 14.400 -1.688 1 0 NaN NaN 19.970 0.757 1911 11 14.800 -2.796 1 0 NaN NaN 21.203 0.482 1911 12 15.800 -2.925 1 0 NaN NaN 22.132 0.282 1912 1 18.750 -0.631 0 0 18.750 -0.631 22.707 0.201 1912 2 17.350 -2.151 1 0 NaN NaN 21.985 -0.641 1912 3 17.200 -2.755 1 0 NaN NaN 22.471 -0.609 1912 4 14.100 -4.562 1 0 NaN NaN 20.115 -1.673 1912 5 13.500 -3.223 0 0 13.500 -3.223 17.111 -2.737 1912 6 15.250 0.381 0 0 15.250 0.381 17.528 -0.466 1912 7 14.650 0.781 0 0 14.650 0.781 17.484 0.489 1912 8 12.700 -1.170 0 0 12.700 -1.170 16.127 -0.868 1912 9 13.400 -1.609 1 0 NaN NaN 16.535 -1.599 1912 10 13.900 -2.188 1 0 NaN NaN 19.634 0.421 1912 11 14.600 -2.996 1 0 NaN NaN 20.809 0.088 1912 12 16.150 -2.575 1 0 NaN NaN 22.377 0.526 1913 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.086 0.579 1913 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.082 -0.544 1913 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.533 0.453 1913 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.630 -0.157 1913 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.139 0.291 1913 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.290 0.296 1913 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.729 -0.265 1913 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.522 0.527 1913 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.634 -0.500 1913 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.244 0.031 1913 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.111 -0.610 1913 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.033 0.182
