% 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 1948 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.147 0.116 1948 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.304 0.064 1948 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.079 -0.639 1948 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.724 -0.420 1948 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.085 -1.638 1948 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.638 2.403 1948 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.582 1.332 1949 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.898 5.214 1949 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.649 3.633 1949 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.284 0.527 1949 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.707 -0.674 1949 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.226 0.044 1949 6 20.556 1.834 0 0 20.556 1.834 21.719 0.688 1949 7 21.532 0.601 0 0 21.532 0.601 24.449 1.209 1949 8 19.611 -0.797 0 0 19.611 -0.797 22.507 -0.210 1949 9 14.611 -2.223 0 0 14.611 -2.223 17.535 -1.609 1949 10 13.056 2.642 0 0 13.056 2.642 14.960 2.238 1949 11 4.111 -0.815 0 0 4.111 -0.815 7.566 0.331 1949 12 2.111 2.171 0 0 2.111 2.171 3.483 1.234 1950 1 5.389 7.013 0 0 5.389 7.013 7.530 6.845 1950 2 1.611 1.904 0 0 1.611 1.904 3.028 1.012 1950 3 2.444 -2.004 0 0 2.444 -2.004 5.369 -1.388 1950 4 9.056 -1.016 0 0 9.056 -1.016 11.136 -1.244 1950 5 15.500 0.628 0 0 15.500 0.628 17.291 0.109 1950 6 18.611 -0.110 0 0 18.611 -0.110 20.554 -0.477 1950 7 19.167 -1.765 0 0 19.167 -1.765 21.842 -1.399 1950 8 18.944 -1.464 0 0 18.944 -1.464 21.623 -1.094 1950 9 14.889 -1.946 0 0 14.889 -1.946 18.175 -0.969 1950 10 12.556 2.142 0 0 12.556 2.142 14.244 1.522 1950 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.413 -0.822 1950 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.010 -2.259 1951 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.369 1.684 1951 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.748 0.732 1951 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.751 -0.006 1951 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.976 -0.405 1951 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.857 -0.324 1951 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.276 0.245 1951 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.318 0.077 1951 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.687 -0.030 1951 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.362 0.218 1951 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.591 1.868
