% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 25033 % Primary Name: BALA % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United Kingdom % Latitude: 52.90722 +/- 0.00014 % Longitude: -3.58306 +/- 0.00014 % Elevation (m): 163.00 +/- 0.05 % # of Months: 30 % % IDs: gsod - 034090-99999 % usaf - 34090 % wmo - 3409 % % Sources: Global Summary of the Day % World Meteorological Organization Metadata % % Site Hash: 72d4570bb05a1ab8c4a2a82173de3d1b % Raw Data Hash: 4ae8b3a9674cb1b1130361f957d0bdf4 % Adj Data Hash: fca5b5cd8d56d4341cde258e9a17820a % % 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 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.499 1.409 2010 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.757 1.133 2010 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.981 -0.318 2010 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.495 0.373 2010 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.349 0.401 2010 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.852 -1.324 2010 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.173 -4.492 2011 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.224 -0.079 2011 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.135 2.552 2011 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.567 1.115 2011 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.441 3.771 2011 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.144 1.094 2011 6 12.856 -0.352 1 0 NaN NaN 13.942 -0.148 2011 7 13.656 -1.086 0 0 13.656 -1.086 15.329 -0.295 2011 8 13.523 -0.894 0 0 13.523 -0.894 15.126 -0.173 2011 9 13.461 1.222 0 0 13.461 1.222 14.716 1.594 2011 10 11.724 2.659 0 0 11.724 2.659 12.637 2.689 2011 11 9.139 3.846 0 0 9.139 3.846 9.336 3.160 2011 12 6.156 2.720 0 0 6.156 2.720 6.291 1.972 2012 1 5.118 2.697 0 0 5.118 2.697 5.201 1.897 2012 2 4.172 1.472 0 0 4.172 1.472 3.772 0.189 2012 3 7.473 2.904 0 0 7.473 2.904 8.093 2.641 2012 4 5.590 -1.197 0 0 5.590 -1.197 6.880 -0.789 2012 5 10.593 0.425 0 0 10.593 0.425 11.844 0.794 2012 6 12.302 -0.906 0 0 12.302 -0.906 13.471 -0.619 2012 7 13.939 -0.803 0 0 13.939 -0.803 15.145 -0.480 2012 8 14.857 0.440 0 0 14.857 0.440 16.014 0.715 2012 9 11.533 -0.706 0 0 11.533 -0.706 12.584 -0.537 2012 10 8.419 -0.646 0 0 8.419 -0.646 9.500 -0.447 2012 11 5.715 0.422 0 0 5.715 0.422 6.231 0.056 2012 12 4.625 1.189 0 0 4.625 1.189 5.084 0.766 2013 1 3.715 1.294 0 0 3.715 1.294 3.509 0.205 2013 2 2.752 0.052 1 0 NaN NaN 2.478 -1.104 2013 3 1.830 -2.740 0 0 1.830 -2.740 2.554 -2.898 2013 4 5.933 -0.853 0 0 5.933 -0.853 6.982 -0.687 2013 5 9.158 -1.010 0 0 9.158 -1.010 10.315 -0.735 2013 6 12.670 -0.537 0 0 12.670 -0.537 13.885 -0.205 2013 7 16.977 2.235 0 0 16.977 2.235 18.381 2.757 2013 8 15.122 0.705 0 0 15.122 0.705 16.486 1.187 2013 9 12.398 0.159 0 0 12.398 0.159 13.537 0.416 2013 10 11.737 2.671 0 0 11.737 2.671 12.454 2.507 2013 11 7.210 1.917 1 0 NaN NaN NaN NaN
