% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 3578 % Primary Name: COLAC AIRPORT % Record Type: TAVG % Country: Australia % Latitude: -38.27980 +/- 0.00005 % Longitude: 143.66130 +/- 0.00005 % Elevation (m): 122.00 +/- 0.50 % # of Months: 23 % % IDs: ghcnd - ASN00090022 % % Sources: Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % % Site Hash: f670493fd77aebeca2a06926c4364586 % Raw Data Hash: c545f4238e0667681e6fe6487a3404fc % Adj Data Hash: 478ec47ca813563537c1d60c4fe25d08 % % 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 1997 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.157 0.488 1997 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.654 0.930 1997 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.405 0.426 1998 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.211 1.044 1998 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.262 0.015 1998 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.763 0.309 1998 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.932 -0.955 1998 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.287 0.343 1998 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.786 -0.061 1998 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.361 -0.605 1998 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.786 0.893 1998 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.071 1.394 1998 10 11.265 -0.993 1 0 NaN NaN 11.958 -0.711 1998 11 13.293 -1.020 0 0 13.293 -1.020 14.085 -0.639 1998 12 17.084 0.516 0 0 17.084 0.516 17.615 0.637 1999 1 20.029 1.272 0 0 20.029 1.272 21.107 1.940 1999 2 20.391 1.554 1 0 NaN NaN 20.545 1.298 1999 3 16.255 -0.788 0 0 16.255 -0.788 17.135 -0.319 1999 4 12.642 -0.835 0 0 12.642 -0.835 12.554 -1.334 1999 5 12.094 1.560 0 0 12.094 1.560 12.064 1.120 1999 6 9.566 1.129 0 0 9.566 1.129 9.468 0.621 1999 7 9.200 1.645 0 0 9.200 1.645 9.311 1.345 1999 8 10.102 1.619 0 0 10.102 1.619 10.298 1.404 1999 9 11.556 1.290 0 0 11.556 1.290 12.298 1.620 1999 10 13.060 0.802 0 0 13.060 0.802 13.688 1.019 1999 11 13.930 -0.383 0 0 13.930 -0.383 14.401 -0.323 1999 12 16.927 0.360 0 0 16.927 0.360 17.274 0.296 2000 1 18.460 -0.297 0 0 18.460 -0.297 18.738 -0.430 2000 2 21.557 2.720 0 0 21.557 2.720 22.191 2.944 2000 3 18.360 1.317 0 0 18.360 1.317 19.129 1.675 2000 4 14.458 0.982 0 0 14.458 0.982 14.805 0.918 2000 5 11.106 0.573 0 0 11.106 0.573 11.106 0.161 2000 6 9.012 0.575 0 0 9.012 0.575 9.334 0.486 2000 7 8.131 0.575 0 0 8.131 0.575 8.434 0.467 2000 8 8.670 0.187 1 0 NaN NaN 9.205 0.311 2000 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.534 0.857 2000 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.364 -0.304 2000 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.921 2.197 2000 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.830 0.852 2001 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.035 2.868 2001 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.130 2.882 2001 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.489 0.036 2001 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.054 0.167 2001 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.327 0.383 2001 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.459 1.611 2001 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.165 1.199 2001 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.837 0.944
