% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 2997 % Primary Name: MARGUERITE BAY % Record Type: TAVG % Country: Antarctica % Latitude: -68.20000 +/- 0.05000 % Longitude: -67.00000 +/- 0.05000 % Elevation (m): 9.00 +/- 0.50 % # of Months: 45 % % IDs: hadcru - 999015 % wmssc - 999015 % % Sources: Hadley Centre Data Release % World Monthly Surface Station Climatology % % Site Hash: 00267d04a0d169dbddb97fbfd21acc95 % Raw Data Hash: 69401f68136bf908137e374a4bbc274a % Adj Data Hash: 69401f68136bf908137e374a4bbc274a % % 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 1945 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -14.304 -1.151 1945 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -15.389 0.476 1945 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -20.195 -1.567 1945 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -22.375 -2.357 1945 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -19.067 0.015 1945 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -16.334 -0.571 1945 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -12.810 -0.789 1945 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -9.489 -1.412 1945 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.834 0.206 1946 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.512 -0.052 1946 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -6.942 -0.359 1946 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -8.302 1.502 1946 4 -3.600 4.033 0 0 -3.600 4.033 -10.841 2.312 1946 5 -5.100 5.244 0 0 -5.100 5.244 -12.722 3.144 1946 6 -5.900 7.207 0 0 -5.900 7.207 -13.658 4.970 1946 7 -10.100 4.397 0 0 -10.100 4.397 -16.770 3.248 1946 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -21.252 -2.170 1946 9 -10.700 -0.458 0 0 -10.700 -0.458 -15.023 0.739 1946 10 -11.300 -4.800 0 0 -11.300 -4.800 -15.302 -3.281 1946 11 -5.000 -2.444 0 0 -5.000 -2.444 -9.393 -1.316 1946 12 -0.700 -1.180 0 0 -0.700 -1.180 -4.865 0.176 1947 1 -0.100 -1.161 0 0 -0.100 -1.161 -4.437 0.023 1947 2 1.000 2.062 0 0 1.000 2.062 -4.666 1.917 1947 3 -0.100 4.183 0 0 -0.100 4.183 -6.649 3.155 1947 4 -4.700 2.933 0 0 -4.700 2.933 -11.731 1.423 1947 5 -9.900 0.444 0 0 -9.900 0.444 -16.550 -0.685 1947 6 -17.300 -4.193 0 0 -17.300 -4.193 -23.213 -4.586 1947 7 -8.700 5.797 0 0 -8.700 5.797 -15.988 4.030 1947 8 -11.400 2.161 0 0 -11.400 2.161 -17.371 1.711 1947 9 -11.200 -0.958 0 0 -11.200 -0.958 -16.022 -0.259 1947 10 -6.800 -0.300 0 0 -6.800 -0.300 -11.175 0.846 1947 11 -3.600 -1.044 0 0 -3.600 -1.044 -7.449 0.628 1947 12 -1.200 -1.680 0 0 -1.200 -1.680 -5.302 -0.261 1948 1 0.300 -0.761 0 0 0.300 -0.761 -4.043 0.418 1948 2 -2.400 -1.338 0 0 -2.400 -1.338 -7.582 -0.999 1948 3 -4.400 -0.117 0 0 -4.400 -0.117 -10.339 -0.535 1948 4 -7.300 0.333 0 0 -7.300 0.333 -14.019 -0.865 1948 5 -12.400 -2.056 0 0 -12.400 -2.056 -18.285 -2.420 1948 6 -9.200 3.907 0 0 -9.200 3.907 -16.683 1.945 1948 7 -15.200 -0.703 0 0 -15.200 -0.703 -22.185 -2.167 1948 8 -12.700 0.861 0 0 -12.700 0.861 -19.058 0.024 1948 9 -14.300 -4.058 0 0 -14.300 -4.058 -18.442 -2.680 1948 10 -7.600 -1.100 0 0 -7.600 -1.100 -11.782 0.239 1948 11 -6.800 -4.244 0 0 -6.800 -4.244 -11.010 -2.933 1948 12 -0.200 -0.680 0 0 -0.200 -0.680 -4.559 0.482 1949 1 0.300 -0.761 0 0 0.300 -0.761 -4.273 0.188 1949 2 -2.600 -1.538 0 0 -2.600 -1.538 -7.940 -1.357 1949 3 -10.100 -5.817 0 0 -10.100 -5.817 -14.678 -4.874 1949 4 -12.800 -5.167 0 0 -12.800 -5.167 -18.977 -5.824 1949 5 -12.600 -2.256 0 0 -12.600 -2.256 -19.279 -3.413 1949 6 -16.600 -3.493 0 0 -16.600 -3.493 -23.419 -4.791 1949 7 -12.900 1.597 0 0 -12.900 1.597 -20.384 -0.366 1949 8 -16.200 -2.639 0 0 -16.200 -2.639 -22.017 -2.935 1949 9 -11.900 -1.658 0 0 -11.900 -1.658 -16.679 -0.916 1949 10 -7.800 -1.300 0 0 -7.800 -1.300 -12.037 -0.016 1949 11 -6.200 -3.644 0 0 -6.200 -3.644 -10.006 -1.929 1949 12 0.900 0.420 0 0 0.900 0.420 -4.169 0.872 1950 1 -0.200 -1.261 0 0 -0.200 -1.261 -4.774 -0.314 1950 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -8.248 -1.665 1950 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -9.285 0.518 1950 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -13.455 -0.301 1950 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -17.451 -1.586 1950 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -17.698 0.930 1950 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -18.993 1.025 1950 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -22.838 -3.756 1950 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -15.608 0.154 1950 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -11.146 0.875 1950 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -8.097 -0.020 1950 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -5.028 0.013 1951 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -5.043 -0.582
