% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 28768 % Primary Name: PALM DESERT % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: CA % Latitude: 33.73330 +/- 0.00005 % Longitude: -116.38330 +/- 0.00005 % Elevation (m): 59.40 +/- 0.05 % # of Months: 36 % % IDs: coop - 46630 % ghcnd - USC00046630 % ncdc - 20003274 % % Sources: US Cooperative Summary of the Day % Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % US Cooperative Summary of the Month % Multi-network Metadata System % % Site Hash: 7bb59fb889f8a7232b8fdee7ff04b368 % Raw Data Hash: 0c8e2586ecc8c6215b76ac6424b0aefa % Adj Data Hash: ae3f38692645f2a9f2923393f62201b2 % % 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 1981 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 29.588 0.837 1981 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 29.251 1.489 1981 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 25.711 1.340 1981 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.073 -1.311 1981 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.435 1.507 1981 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.122 2.199 1982 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.282 -0.350 1982 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.311 1.377 1982 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.744 -1.286 1982 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.955 -0.430 1982 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.914 -0.018 1982 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.872 -1.963 1982 7 30.278 -3.557 0 0 30.278 -3.557 27.957 -0.795 1982 8 31.500 -1.345 0 0 31.500 -1.345 27.770 0.008 1982 9 28.556 -0.899 0 0 28.556 -0.899 23.745 -0.626 1982 10 21.500 -1.968 0 0 21.500 -1.968 17.684 -0.700 1982 11 14.444 -2.566 0 0 14.444 -2.566 10.330 -1.597 1982 12 11.778 -1.228 0 0 11.778 -1.228 7.066 -0.857 1983 1 14.389 1.674 0 0 14.389 1.674 9.034 1.402 1983 2 16.111 1.095 0 0 16.111 1.095 10.476 0.543 1983 3 18.278 1.165 0 0 18.278 1.165 11.400 -0.630 1983 4 18.556 -1.913 0 0 18.556 -1.913 12.339 -3.046 1983 5 25.944 0.930 0 0 25.944 0.930 19.845 -0.087 1983 6 28.556 -1.363 0 0 28.556 -1.363 23.588 -1.247 1983 7 32.111 -1.723 0 0 32.111 -1.723 27.631 -1.121 1983 8 31.556 -1.289 0 0 31.556 -1.289 26.713 -1.049 1983 9 30.556 1.101 0 0 30.556 1.101 26.070 1.698 1983 10 24.333 0.866 0 0 24.333 0.866 19.094 0.709 1983 11 17.278 0.268 0 0 17.278 0.268 12.038 0.111 1983 12 13.444 0.439 0 0 13.444 0.439 9.072 1.149 1984 1 15.056 2.340 0 0 15.056 2.340 9.569 1.937 1984 2 16.500 1.484 0 0 16.500 1.484 10.615 0.681 1984 3 19.722 2.609 0 0 19.722 2.609 13.720 1.690 1984 4 20.833 0.365 0 0 20.833 0.365 15.145 -0.241 1984 5 28.444 3.430 0 0 28.444 3.430 23.366 3.435 1984 6 29.444 -0.474 0 0 29.444 -0.474 24.654 -0.181 1984 7 34.111 0.277 0 0 34.111 0.277 29.554 0.803 1984 8 33.056 0.211 0 0 33.056 0.211 28.276 0.514 1984 9 31.556 2.101 0 0 31.556 2.101 26.861 2.490 1984 10 22.111 -1.356 0 0 22.111 -1.356 16.788 -1.596 1984 11 16.167 -0.843 0 0 16.167 -0.843 11.041 -0.886 1984 12 12.056 -0.950 0 0 12.056 -0.950 6.375 -1.548 1985 1 12.278 -0.438 0 0 12.278 -0.438 7.344 -0.289 1985 2 13.944 -1.072 0 0 13.944 -1.072 9.461 -0.472 1985 3 17.833 0.721 0 0 17.833 0.721 10.719 -1.311 1985 4 24.000 3.532 0 0 24.000 3.532 17.777 2.392 1985 5 25.667 0.652 0 0 25.667 0.652 20.128 0.197 1985 6 30.611 0.693 0 0 30.611 0.693 26.328 1.493 1985 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 30.091 1.339 1985 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 27.278 -0.484 1985 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.560 -2.812 1985 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.454 0.070 1985 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.542 -1.385 1985 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.524 0.601 1986 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.043 3.410 1986 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.765 1.831 1986 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.345 2.315 1986 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.864 0.478 1986 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.936 1.005 1986 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.186 1.351
