% 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 2009 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.944 0.478 2009 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.224 -0.223 2009 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.766 2.480 2009 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.973 -1.001 2010 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.560 -2.079 2010 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -1.047 -3.708 2010 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.748 -0.056 2010 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.413 2.451 2010 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.342 1.887 2010 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.907 2.917 2010 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.959 2.025 2010 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.508 1.923 2010 9 21.944 2.188 0 0 21.944 2.188 20.271 1.805 2010 10 15.056 1.318 0 0 15.056 1.318 13.428 0.981 2010 11 8.500 -0.077 0 0 8.500 -0.077 8.353 1.067 2010 12 -0.111 -4.375 0 0 -0.111 -4.375 -1.500 -4.474 2011 1 1.222 -1.587 0 0 1.222 -1.587 -0.078 -1.598 2011 2 6.333 2.382 0 0 6.333 2.382 4.569 1.907 2011 3 9.000 0.905 0 0 9.000 0.905 7.960 1.156 2011 4 15.056 1.803 0 0 15.056 1.803 14.405 2.443 2011 5 18.778 1.033 0 0 18.778 1.033 17.139 0.684 2011 6 23.889 2.608 0 0 23.889 2.608 21.869 1.879 2011 7 25.611 2.386 0 0 25.611 2.386 23.802 1.868 2011 8 24.389 1.513 0 0 24.389 1.513 22.784 1.199 2011 9 20.722 0.966 0 0 20.722 0.966 19.181 0.715 2011 10 13.500 -0.238 0 0 13.500 -0.238 12.080 -0.368 2011 11 9.222 0.646 0 0 9.222 0.646 9.417 2.131 2011 12 6.610 2.346 0 0 6.610 2.346 5.955 2.981 2012 1 4.611 1.801 0 0 4.611 1.801 3.843 2.324 2012 2 5.655 1.703 0 0 5.655 1.703 4.851 2.190 2012 3 13.583 5.489 0 0 13.583 5.489 12.503 5.698 2012 4 14.262 1.009 0 0 14.262 1.009 13.502 1.539 2012 5 20.245 2.500 0 0 20.245 2.500 18.610 2.155 2012 6 21.628 0.348 0 0 21.628 0.348 20.107 0.116 2012 7 25.964 2.739 1 0 NaN NaN 23.838 1.903 2012 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.550 -0.036 2012 9 20.224 0.468 0 0 20.224 0.468 18.793 0.327 2012 10 14.351 0.613 0 0 14.351 0.613 12.258 -0.190 2012 11 7.191 -1.385 0 0 7.191 -1.385 6.697 -0.589 2012 12 7.116 2.852 0 0 7.116 2.852 5.974 3.000 2013 1 5.210 2.400 0 0 5.210 2.400 4.394 2.875 2013 2 4.261 0.309 0 0 4.261 0.309 2.219 -0.442 2013 3 5.045 -3.049 0 0 5.045 -3.049 3.650 -3.155 2013 4 13.470 0.217 0 0 13.470 0.217 12.420 0.457 2013 5 17.114 -0.631 1 0 NaN NaN 15.779 -0.676 2013 6 23.249 1.968 1 0 NaN NaN 20.780 0.790 2013 7 24.283 1.058 0 0 24.283 1.058 22.086 0.151 2013 8 22.612 -0.264 0 0 22.612 -0.264 21.238 -0.347 2013 9 20.595 0.839 0 0 20.595 0.839 18.850 0.384 2013 10 14.795 1.057 0 0 14.795 1.057 13.359 0.911 2013 11 10.192 1.615 1 0 NaN NaN NaN NaN
