% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 28557 % Primary Name: BANKHEAD LOCK AND DAM % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: AL % Latitude: 33.45000 +/- 0.00500 % Longitude: -87.35000 +/- 0.00500 % Elevation (m): 85.30 +/- 0.05 % # of Months: 8 % % Alternate Names: BANKHEAD L&D % % IDs: coop - 14855 % ghcnd - USC00014855 % % Sources: US Cooperative Summary of the Day % Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % US Cooperative Summary of the Month % % Site Hash: ad2912507575b9930ddf2a7d0fcd6bef % Raw Data Hash: c353e209a2a6be2bd348ae2bfb26587d % Adj Data Hash: c353e209a2a6be2bd348ae2bfb26587d % % 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 1955 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.384 -2.077 1955 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 27.013 -0.018 1955 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 27.311 0.596 1955 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 25.836 1.883 1955 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.597 -0.852 1955 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.400 -0.494 1955 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.144 0.062 1956 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.487 -1.280 1956 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.631 2.918 1956 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.814 0.023 1956 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.572 -1.000 1956 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.176 1.452 1956 6 25.111 0.182 0 0 25.111 0.182 25.153 -0.308 1956 7 26.889 0.390 0 0 26.889 0.390 27.152 0.122 1956 8 26.778 0.595 0 0 26.778 0.595 27.427 0.713 1956 9 22.444 -0.977 0 0 22.444 -0.977 23.331 -0.623 1956 10 18.500 1.583 0 0 18.500 1.583 18.374 0.925 1956 11 10.500 -0.862 0 0 10.500 -0.862 10.845 -1.049 1956 12 11.611 4.061 0 0 11.611 4.061 12.731 4.649 1957 1 7.789 1.553 0 0 7.789 1.553 8.862 2.095 1957 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.460 4.747 1957 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.634 -1.157 1957 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.673 1.101 1957 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.136 0.412 1957 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.442 0.981 1957 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.961 -0.070 1957 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.912 0.198 1957 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.081 0.127 1957 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.153 -2.296 1957 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.250 1.356 1957 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.102 1.020 1958 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.082 -2.685
