% 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 2008 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.324 -0.664 2008 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.234 1.388 2008 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.755 0.953 2008 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.333 0.020 2008 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.578 0.386 2008 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 28.011 1.420 2008 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 28.963 1.008 2008 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 27.765 0.160 2008 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.792 -0.274 2008 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.661 -0.561 2008 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.828 -0.104 2008 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.075 0.773 2009 1 9.389 0.413 0 0 9.389 0.413 9.401 0.413 2009 2 12.889 2.055 0 0 12.889 2.055 12.587 1.741 2009 3 14.778 -0.012 0 0 14.778 -0.012 15.404 0.603 2009 4 18.833 -0.468 0 0 18.833 -0.468 18.935 -0.379 2009 5 24.111 0.931 0 0 24.111 0.931 23.719 0.526 2009 6 28.611 2.032 0 0 28.611 2.032 28.341 1.750 2009 7 29.167 1.224 0 0 29.167 1.224 28.636 0.682 2009 8 28.111 0.518 0 0 28.111 0.518 27.679 0.074 2009 9 25.222 0.168 0 0 25.222 0.168 25.720 0.654 2009 10 18.333 -0.876 0 0 18.333 -0.876 18.938 -0.284 2009 11 15.000 1.080 0 0 15.000 1.080 14.652 0.720 2009 12 7.778 -2.512 0 0 7.778 -2.512 8.784 -1.517 2010 1 7.056 -1.921 0 0 7.056 -1.921 6.957 -2.031 2010 2 6.611 -4.223 0 0 6.611 -4.223 6.356 -4.490 2010 3 13.278 -1.512 0 0 13.278 -1.512 12.923 -1.879 2010 4 20.556 1.254 0 0 20.556 1.254 20.270 0.956 2010 5 25.833 2.653 0 0 25.833 2.653 25.507 2.314 2010 6 29.667 3.087 0 0 29.667 3.087 29.254 2.663 2010 7 29.444 1.502 0 0 29.444 1.502 29.006 1.052 2010 8 30.944 3.352 0 0 30.944 3.352 29.999 2.394 2010 9 27.333 2.279 0 0 27.333 2.279 27.220 2.154 2010 10 20.722 1.513 0 0 20.722 1.513 20.326 1.105 2010 11 14.611 0.691 0 0 14.611 0.691 14.949 1.017 2010 12 8.667 -1.623 0 0 8.667 -1.623 9.212 -1.089 2011 1 7.722 -1.254 0 0 7.722 -1.254 7.688 -1.301 2011 2 11.167 0.332 0 0 11.167 0.332 10.954 0.107 2011 3 16.444 1.655 0 0 16.444 1.655 16.595 1.794 2011 4 22.167 2.865 0 0 22.167 2.865 21.871 2.558 2011 5 23.833 0.653 0 0 23.833 0.653 23.587 0.394 2011 6 29.778 3.198 0 0 29.778 3.198 29.562 2.971 2011 7 29.833 1.891 0 0 29.833 1.891 29.480 1.526 2011 8 32.056 4.463 0 0 32.056 4.463 31.096 3.491 2011 9 25.778 0.724 0 0 25.778 0.724 25.187 0.121 2011 10 19.333 0.124 0 0 19.333 0.124 18.563 -0.658 2011 11 15.389 1.468 0 0 15.389 1.468 15.439 1.506 2011 12 9.376 -0.914 0 0 9.376 -0.914 10.467 0.166 2012 1 12.219 3.243 0 0 12.219 3.243 12.373 3.384 2012 2 12.671 1.836 1 0 NaN NaN 12.662 1.816 2012 3 20.137 5.348 0 0 20.137 5.348 19.722 4.920 2012 4 21.448 2.147 0 0 21.448 2.147 21.079 1.766 2012 5 25.503 2.323 0 0 25.503 2.323 24.793 1.600 2012 6 28.060 1.481 0 0 28.060 1.481 27.822 1.230 2012 7 29.131 1.188 0 0 29.131 1.188 28.245 0.290 2012 8 28.927 1.335 0 0 28.927 1.335 28.157 0.552 2012 9 26.082 1.027 0 0 26.082 1.027 25.768 0.701 2012 10 18.758 -0.451 0 0 18.758 -0.451 18.690 -0.531 2012 11 13.835 -0.085 0 0 13.835 -0.085 13.987 0.054 2012 12 12.290 2.001 0 0 12.290 2.001 12.942 2.641 2013 1 10.705 1.729 0 0 10.705 1.729 10.861 1.872 2013 2 11.139 0.305 0 0 11.139 0.305 11.581 0.735 2013 3 12.395 -2.394 0 0 12.395 -2.394 13.128 -1.674 2013 4 17.092 -2.210 0 0 17.092 -2.210 18.234 -1.079 2013 5 21.676 -1.505 0 0 21.676 -1.505 22.315 -0.878 2013 6 26.530 -0.049 0 0 26.530 -0.049 27.775 1.184 2013 7 26.542 -1.401 0 0 26.542 -1.401 27.502 -0.452 2013 8 27.621 0.028 0 0 27.621 0.028 28.199 0.594 2013 9 26.067 1.012 0 0 26.067 1.012 27.221 2.155 2013 10 19.144 -0.066 0 0 19.144 -0.066 20.149 0.928 2013 11 15.358 1.438 1 0 NaN NaN NaN NaN
