% 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 2007 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.317 -0.312 2007 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.142 0.314 2007 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 27.205 2.473 2007 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.575 1.181 2007 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.766 1.932 2007 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.871 1.417 2007 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -2.459 -1.745 2008 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.002 0.128 2008 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.068 -0.174 2008 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.675 0.540 2008 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.111 -1.899 2008 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.885 -0.910 2008 6 22.389 0.351 0 0 22.472 0.434 22.745 0.117 2008 7 25.444 0.208 0 0 25.528 0.291 26.361 0.534 2008 8 22.778 -1.363 0 0 22.861 -1.280 23.765 -0.967 2008 9 18.500 -0.304 0 0 18.583 -0.221 18.851 -0.544 2008 10 11.222 -1.021 0 0 11.306 -0.938 12.884 0.050 2008 11 5.833 1.971 0 0 5.917 2.054 6.450 1.997 2008 12 -3.340 -2.035 0 0 -3.257 -1.952 -2.075 -1.360 2009 1 -1.444 2.276 0 0 -1.361 2.359 -0.522 2.607 2009 2 2.000 2.485 0 1 1.988 2.473 3.426 3.321 2009 3 4.667 1.123 0 0 4.655 1.111 4.672 0.538 2009 4 9.000 -1.419 0 0 8.988 -1.431 10.258 -0.752 2009 5 16.444 0.241 0 0 16.433 0.229 16.741 -0.053 2009 6 22.389 0.351 0 0 22.377 0.339 22.525 -0.103 2009 7 23.500 -1.737 0 0 23.488 -1.748 24.390 -1.438 2009 8 22.944 -1.197 0 0 22.933 -1.208 23.756 -0.976 2009 9 17.722 -1.082 0 0 17.711 -1.094 17.844 -1.551 2009 10 8.111 -4.132 0 0 8.099 -4.144 8.753 -4.081 2009 11 7.167 3.304 0 0 7.155 3.292 7.466 3.013 2009 12 -5.944 -4.639 0 0 -5.956 -4.651 -4.546 -3.832 2010 1 -3.722 -0.002 0 0 -3.734 -0.014 -2.918 0.212 2010 2 -2.278 -1.793 0 0 -2.289 -1.804 -1.223 -1.328 2010 3 5.611 2.067 0 0 5.599 2.055 5.220 1.085 2010 4 13.056 2.636 0 0 13.044 2.625 13.086 2.076 2010 5 15.389 -0.815 0 0 15.377 -0.827 15.297 -1.497 2010 6 24.333 2.295 0 0 24.322 2.284 24.432 1.803 2010 7 26.389 1.152 0 0 26.377 1.140 26.756 0.929 2010 8 26.278 2.137 0 0 26.266 2.125 26.490 1.758 2010 9 20.833 2.029 0 0 20.822 2.017 20.869 1.475 2010 10 13.833 1.590 0 0 13.822 1.578 15.239 2.405 2010 11 4.611 0.749 0 0 4.599 0.737 4.948 0.495 2010 12 -1.778 -0.473 0 0 -1.789 -0.484 -0.363 0.351 2011 1 -4.278 -0.557 0 0 -4.289 -0.569 -3.432 -0.302 2011 2 -2.889 -2.404 0 0 -2.901 -2.415 -1.749 -1.854 2011 3 4.611 1.067 0 0 4.599 1.055 4.357 0.222 2011 4 11.111 0.692 0 0 11.099 0.680 11.763 0.753 2011 5 15.889 -0.315 0 0 15.877 -0.327 15.894 -0.900 2011 6 23.556 1.517 0 0 23.544 1.506 23.873 1.245 2011 7 28.778 3.541 0 0 28.766 3.529 28.853 3.025 2011 8 25.444 1.303 0 0 25.433 1.292 26.292 1.560 2011 9 17.278 -1.526 0 0 17.266 -1.538 17.977 -1.418 2011 10 12.444 0.201 0 0 12.433 0.189 13.940 1.106 2011 11 4.722 0.860 0 0 4.711 0.848 5.303 0.850 2011 12 -0.908 0.397 0 0 -0.920 0.385 -0.486 0.229 2012 1 0.552 4.272 0 0 0.540 4.260 1.047 4.177 2012 2 0.600 1.085 0 0 0.588 1.073 1.497 1.392 2012 3 11.108 7.564 0 0 11.096 7.552 10.975 6.840 2012 4 13.688 3.269 0 0 13.677 3.257 14.283 3.273 2012 5 19.889 3.685 0 0 19.877 3.673 19.524 2.730 2012 6 25.875 3.837 0 0 25.863 3.825 25.974 3.346 2012 7 29.579 4.342 0 0 29.567 4.331 29.257 3.429 2012 8 23.595 -0.546 0 0 23.583 -0.558 24.667 -0.064 2012 9 18.141 -0.663 0 0 18.130 -0.674 19.407 0.012 2012 10 10.126 -2.118 0 0 10.114 -2.130 11.604 -1.230 2012 11 6.060 2.197 0 0 6.048 2.186 6.952 2.498 2012 12 -1.063 0.242 0 0 -1.075 0.231 0.116 0.831 2013 1 -2.624 1.096 0 0 -2.636 1.085 -1.815 1.314 2013 2 -0.791 -0.306 0 0 -0.803 -0.318 0.513 0.407 2013 3 2.794 -0.751 0 0 2.782 -0.762 3.206 -0.929 2013 4 8.222 -2.198 0 0 8.210 -2.209 8.439 -2.571 2013 5 16.839 0.635 0 0 16.827 0.623 17.181 0.387 2013 6 23.369 1.330 0 0 23.357 1.319 24.094 1.465 2013 7 25.032 -0.204 0 0 25.021 -0.216 25.551 -0.276 2013 8 25.226 1.085 0 0 25.214 1.073 25.237 0.506 2013 9 22.382 3.578 0 0 22.370 3.566 22.172 2.777 2013 10 12.044 -0.200 0 0 12.032 -0.212 12.683 -0.151 2013 11 8.000 4.137 1 0 NaN NaN NaN NaN
