% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 28913 % Primary Name: OAK ISLAND % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: NC % Latitude: 33.90000 +/- 0.00005 % Longitude: -78.03330 +/- 0.00005 % Elevation (m): 4.57 +/- 0.15 % # of Months: 29 % % Alternate Names: Missing Station ID - 316304 % % IDs: coop - 316304 % ghcnd - USC00316304 % ncdc - 12003910 % % Sources: US Cooperative Summary of the Day % Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % Multi-network Metadata System % % Site Hash: ac45e56ad598b30cbf0dac1e686a116b % Raw Data Hash: b2cc7cefe7b5d40996f3e0141c47edeb % Adj Data Hash: dcd78a7c13a04a0f35383697d366a2cb % % 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 1942 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.798 1.528 1942 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.143 -0.809 1943 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.902 1.110 1943 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.904 0.081 1943 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.304 -0.386 1943 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.259 -1.189 1943 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.623 0.903 1943 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.579 2.474 1943 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 25.883 -0.161 1943 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 25.959 0.204 1943 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.867 -1.173 1943 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.309 -0.810 1943 11 11.292 -1.410 0 0 11.292 -1.410 11.471 -0.799 1943 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.905 -1.046 1944 1 7.613 0.389 0 0 7.613 0.389 6.882 0.089 1944 2 9.338 1.083 1 0 NaN NaN 9.079 1.256 1944 3 11.947 -0.174 0 0 11.947 -0.174 11.547 -0.143 1944 4 15.818 -1.061 0 0 15.818 -1.061 16.527 0.078 1944 5 22.737 1.586 0 0 22.737 1.586 22.562 1.842 1944 6 26.425 1.888 0 0 26.425 1.888 26.050 1.945 1944 7 25.970 -0.505 0 0 25.970 -0.505 25.431 -0.613 1944 8 25.798 -0.388 0 0 25.798 -0.388 24.916 -0.838 1944 9 24.727 1.255 0 0 24.727 1.255 24.209 1.168 1944 10 17.984 0.434 0 0 17.984 0.434 16.655 -0.464 1944 11 12.022 -0.680 0 0 12.022 -0.680 11.418 -0.852 1944 12 6.089 -2.294 0 0 6.089 -2.294 5.188 -2.763 1945 1 6.889 -0.335 0 0 6.889 -0.335 5.949 -0.843 1945 2 8.882 0.628 0 0 8.882 0.628 8.390 0.566 1945 3 15.574 3.453 0 0 15.574 3.453 16.531 4.842 1945 4 18.748 1.869 0 0 18.748 1.869 19.040 2.592 1945 5 20.131 -1.020 0 0 20.131 -1.020 19.583 -1.137 1945 6 25.000 0.463 0 0 25.000 0.463 24.796 0.691 1945 7 26.348 -0.126 0 0 26.348 -0.126 25.972 -0.072 1945 8 25.652 -0.535 0 0 25.652 -0.535 24.892 -0.863 1945 9 25.923 2.451 0 0 25.923 2.451 25.492 2.451 1945 10 18.610 1.059 0 0 18.610 1.059 16.811 -0.308 1945 11 14.607 1.905 0 0 14.607 1.905 13.802 1.532 1945 12 6.587 -1.796 0 0 6.587 -1.796 5.182 -2.770 1946 1 8.282 1.058 0 0 8.282 1.058 7.947 1.154 1946 2 8.870 0.615 0 0 8.870 0.615 8.746 0.922 1946 3 14.189 2.068 0 0 14.189 2.068 15.079 3.389 1946 4 15.289 -1.590 1 0 NaN NaN 16.415 -0.033 1946 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.571 -0.149 1946 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.444 -0.662 1946 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.837 -1.206 1946 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.246 -1.509 1946 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.784 -0.257 1946 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.492 0.373 1946 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.404 3.134 1946 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.017 2.065 1947 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.384 3.592 1947 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.396 -3.427 1947 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.703 -3.987 1947 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.757 1.309
