% 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 1986 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -9.229 2.876 1986 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -15.723 1.616 1986 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -21.292 -0.186 1986 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -23.579 -0.823 1986 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -26.415 -2.488 1986 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -26.650 -0.693 1986 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -24.814 1.911 1986 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -24.026 2.010 1986 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -22.344 -1.027 1986 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -13.344 0.620 1986 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -8.306 0.013 1987 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -6.460 1.241 1987 2 -12.100 -0.583 0 0 -12.100 -0.583 -12.248 -0.142 1987 3 -14.900 1.850 0 0 -14.900 1.850 -15.419 1.921 1987 4 -19.800 0.718 0 0 -19.800 0.718 -20.019 1.088 1987 5 -23.000 -0.832 0 0 -23.000 -0.832 -23.417 -0.660 1987 6 -23.300 0.038 0 0 -23.300 0.038 -23.149 0.778 1987 7 -25.500 -0.131 0 0 -25.500 -0.131 -26.357 -0.399 1987 8 -27.300 -1.164 0 0 -27.300 -1.164 -28.682 -1.957 1987 9 -26.400 -0.952 0 0 -26.400 -0.952 -27.661 -1.624 1987 10 -21.500 -0.772 0 0 -21.500 -0.772 -22.252 -0.935 1987 11 -13.300 0.075 0 0 -13.300 0.075 -13.507 0.456 1987 12 -8.600 -0.869 0 0 -8.600 -0.869 -8.530 -0.211 1988 1 -7.300 -0.187 0 0 -7.300 -0.187 -7.351 0.351 1988 2 -12.400 -0.883 0 0 -12.400 -0.883 -12.613 -0.508 1988 3 -14.700 2.050 0 0 -14.700 2.050 -15.054 2.286 1988 4 -23.000 -2.482 0 0 -23.000 -2.482 -23.045 -1.938 1988 5 -22.000 0.168 0 0 -22.000 0.168 -22.383 0.374 1988 6 -19.200 4.138 0 0 -19.200 4.138 -20.413 3.513 1988 7 -25.500 -0.131 0 0 -25.500 -0.131 -26.557 -0.599 1988 8 -24.100 2.036 0 0 -24.100 2.036 -25.281 1.444 1988 9 -23.300 2.148 0 0 -23.300 2.148 -24.373 1.663 1988 10 -19.400 1.328 0 0 -19.400 1.328 -20.172 1.146 1988 11 -15.500 -2.125 0 0 -15.500 -2.125 -15.444 -1.480 1988 12 -9.700 -1.969 0 0 -9.700 -1.969 -9.686 -1.366 1989 1 -9.200 -2.087 0 0 -9.200 -2.087 -9.023 -1.322 1989 2 -11.500 0.017 0 0 -11.500 0.017 -11.893 0.212 1989 3 -17.000 -0.250 0 0 -17.000 -0.250 -17.454 -0.114 1989 4 -19.600 0.918 0 0 -19.600 0.918 -21.069 0.038 1989 5 -29.200 -7.032 0 0 -29.200 -7.032 -29.250 -6.494 1989 6 -24.300 -0.962 0 0 -24.300 -0.962 -25.551 -1.624 1989 7 -23.500 1.869 0 0 -23.500 1.869 -26.086 -0.129 1989 8 -24.900 1.236 0 0 -24.900 1.236 -26.338 0.387 1989 9 -27.300 -1.852 0 0 -27.300 -1.852 -28.478 -2.441 1989 10 -19.100 1.628 0 0 -19.100 1.628 -20.130 1.187 1989 11 -13.700 -0.325 0 0 -13.700 -0.325 -13.917 0.046 1989 12 -7.700 0.031 0 0 -7.700 0.031 -7.598 0.722 1990 1 -8.100 -0.987 0 0 -8.100 -0.987 -7.934 -0.233 1990 2 -12.458 -0.941 0 0 -12.458 -0.941 -12.852 -0.746 1990 3 -15.966 0.785 0 0 -15.966 0.785 -16.524 0.815 1990 4 -19.441 1.077 0 0 -19.441 1.077 -20.364 0.743 1990 5 -23.032 -0.865 0 0 -23.032 -0.865 -23.412 -0.656 1990 6 -23.439 -0.101 0 0 -23.439 -0.101 -24.679 -0.752 1990 7 -19.484 5.885 0 0 -19.484 5.885 -20.686 5.272 1990 8 -27.667 -1.530 0 0 -27.667 -1.530 -28.554 -1.829 1990 9 -27.689 -2.241 0 0 -27.689 -2.241 -29.170 -3.134 1990 10 -18.640 2.089 0 0 -18.640 2.089 -19.029 2.288 1990 11 -13.487 -0.112 0 0 -13.487 -0.112 -13.553 0.411 1990 12 -8.200 -0.469 0 0 -8.200 -0.469 -7.928 0.392 1991 1 -8.563 -1.450 0 0 -8.563 -1.450 -8.424 -0.723 1991 2 -10.718 0.799 0 0 -10.718 0.799 -10.938 1.168 1991 3 -17.459 -0.708 0 0 -17.459 -0.708 -17.535 -0.196 1991 4 -21.594 -1.077 0 0 -21.594 -1.077 -21.992 -0.885 1991 5 -21.208 0.960 0 0 -21.208 0.960 -21.816 0.940 1991 6 -21.089 2.249 0 0 -21.089 2.249 -21.925 2.002 1991 7 -22.050 3.319 0 0 -22.050 3.319 -23.182 2.776 1991 8 -24.271 1.866 0 0 -24.271 1.866 -25.013 1.712 1991 9 -23.715 1.733 0 0 -23.715 1.733 -24.699 1.338 1991 10 -22.595 -1.867 0 0 -22.595 -1.867 -22.968 -1.651 1991 11 -14.172 -0.797 0 0 -14.172 -0.797 -14.407 -0.444 1991 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -6.350 1.970 1992 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -6.833 0.868 1992 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -10.933 1.173 1992 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -15.822 1.517 1992 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -20.496 0.611 1992 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -21.254 1.503 1992 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -22.079 1.847 1992 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -25.739 0.218 1992 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -27.414 -0.689 1992 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -28.182 -2.145 1992 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -21.600 -0.283 1992 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -14.429 -0.466
