% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 26297 % Primary Name: FOURCHON HELIPORT % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: LA % Latitude: 29.11700 +/- 0.00050 % Longitude: -90.20000 +/- 0.00050 % Elevation (m): 30.00 +/- 0.05 % # of Months: 24 % % IDs: gsod - 720957-99999 % icao - KXPY % usaf - 720957 % % Sources: Global Summary of the Day % % Site Hash: 5af3de19ab8d222d2ab63574b10cffcf % Raw Data Hash: 3dfb43297ef8742bb2124a47189faa84 % Adj Data Hash: e6e702668ebd66025504c61dec63ed47 % % 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 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.188 0.561 2010 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.912 1.100 2010 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.408 -2.234 2011 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.679 -1.851 2011 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.239 -0.744 2011 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.920 2.325 2011 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.841 2.308 2011 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.416 0.335 2011 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 29.250 2.276 2011 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 28.689 0.795 2011 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 30.010 2.324 2011 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 25.726 -0.214 2011 10 22.262 0.045 0 0 22.262 0.045 19.723 -0.904 2011 11 19.487 2.085 0 0 19.487 2.085 17.106 1.294 2011 12 15.732 1.500 0 0 15.732 1.500 13.610 0.968 2012 1 16.849 3.730 0 0 16.849 3.730 14.531 3.001 2012 2 16.659 2.086 0 0 16.659 2.086 15.011 2.027 2012 3 21.647 3.462 0 0 21.647 3.462 20.900 4.304 2012 4 22.981 0.858 0 0 22.981 0.858 22.191 1.658 2012 5 25.621 -0.050 1 0 NaN NaN 25.654 1.573 2012 6 27.919 -0.644 1 0 NaN NaN 27.954 0.981 2012 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 28.237 0.342 2012 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 27.867 0.181 2012 9 27.291 -0.239 1 0 NaN NaN 26.843 0.902 2012 10 23.099 0.882 0 0 23.099 0.882 20.543 -0.084 2012 11 17.911 0.509 0 0 17.911 0.509 15.419 -0.393 2012 12 16.986 2.754 0 0 16.986 2.754 14.885 2.243 2013 1 15.363 2.243 0 0 15.363 2.243 13.204 1.674 2013 2 17.329 2.756 1 0 NaN NaN 13.888 0.905 2013 3 15.256 -2.929 1 0 NaN NaN 14.742 -1.854 2013 4 20.524 -1.599 0 0 20.524 -1.599 20.044 -0.490 2013 5 23.676 -1.995 0 0 23.676 -1.995 23.080 -1.001 2013 6 28.915 0.351 1 0 NaN NaN 28.557 1.583 2013 7 28.238 -1.246 0 0 28.238 -1.246 27.915 0.020 2013 8 28.713 -0.563 0 0 28.713 -0.563 27.978 0.292 2013 9 28.507 0.977 0 0 28.507 0.977 27.799 1.859 2013 10 24.330 2.113 0 0 24.330 2.113 21.998 1.371 2013 11 21.266 3.864 1 0 NaN NaN NaN NaN
