% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 31507 % Primary Name: LA CROSSE % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: VA % Latitude: 36.70030 +/- 0.00005 % Longitude: -78.09970 +/- 0.00005 % Elevation (m): 145.08 +/- 0.15 % # of Months: 16 % % Alternate Names: Missing Station ID - 444660 % % IDs: coop - 444660 % ghcnd - USC00444660 % ncdc - 12005752 % % Sources: US Cooperative Summary of the Day % Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % Multi-network Metadata System % % Site Hash: 966c99df099d16f79ebc61eccfa2ad51 % Raw Data Hash: e3a6b9989a0b84a63ef5d6e07e891b9a % Adj Data Hash: 2babb82d0b4186b6a927eab7ef829b9a % % 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 1901 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.144 0.145 1901 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.239 -0.356 1901 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.286 -3.222 1901 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.507 -1.167 1902 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.794 -1.587 1902 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.196 -4.317 1902 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.562 0.722 1902 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.008 -1.185 1902 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.448 0.749 1902 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.839 0.285 1902 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.601 0.854 1902 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.574 -0.687 1902 9 22.389 0.689 0 0 22.389 0.689 21.352 -0.647 1902 10 17.004 1.708 0 0 17.004 1.708 16.673 1.078 1902 11 12.465 2.255 1 0 NaN NaN 13.711 3.202 1902 12 4.722 -0.652 0 0 4.722 -0.652 5.065 -0.609 1903 1 3.074 -1.008 0 0 3.074 -1.008 4.345 -0.037 1903 2 5.679 0.465 1 0 NaN NaN 6.444 0.932 1903 3 12.955 3.414 0 0 12.955 3.414 13.480 3.640 1903 4 14.019 -0.876 0 0 14.019 -0.876 14.625 -0.568 1903 5 20.026 0.625 0 0 20.026 0.625 19.684 -0.015 1903 6 20.844 -2.411 1 0 NaN NaN 21.468 -2.086 1903 7 26.169 0.720 1 0 NaN NaN 25.993 0.245 1903 8 23.333 -1.628 1 0 NaN NaN 25.278 0.018 1903 9 20.020 -1.680 0 0 20.020 -1.680 21.438 -0.560 1903 10 14.458 -0.838 0 0 14.458 -0.838 14.582 -1.013 1903 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.539 -1.970 1903 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.310 -3.364 1904 1 1.232 -2.850 1 0 NaN NaN 1.474 -2.908 1904 2 1.128 -4.086 0 0 1.128 -4.086 1.540 -3.973 1904 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.716 -0.123 1904 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.533 -1.660 1904 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.150 -0.549 1904 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.460 -0.094 1904 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.946 -0.801 1904 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.567 -0.694 1904 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.610 -0.388 1904 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.948 -1.647 1904 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.866 -1.643 1904 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.105 -2.568 1905 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.173 -2.209 1905 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 0.204 -5.309
