% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 35851 % Primary Name: BENSONHURST % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: NY % Latitude: 40.60000 +/- 0.00005 % Longitude: -73.96670 +/- 0.00005 % Elevation (m): 6.10 +/- 0.05 % # of Months: 15 % % IDs: coop - 300621 % ghcnd - USC00300621 % % Sources: US Cooperative Summary of the Day % Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % US Cooperative Summary of the Month % % Site Hash: 37f037901ad541da1c7af0b03a502532 % Raw Data Hash: 7fd8037837cb7c98645947a1f7dc37c1 % Adj Data Hash: 7fd8037837cb7c98645947a1f7dc37c1 % % 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 1949 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 0.967 4.141 1949 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.058 3.127 1949 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.319 1.371 1949 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.153 0.898 1949 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.141 0.166 1949 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.396 1.489 1949 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.549 1.999 1949 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.595 0.938 1949 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.415 -1.171 1949 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.056 2.749 1949 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.457 -0.114 1949 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 0.300 1.125 1950 1 5.703 6.675 0 0 5.703 6.675 2.192 5.366 1950 2 0.167 0.034 0 0 0.167 0.034 -2.773 -0.705 1950 3 2.167 -2.982 0 0 2.167 -2.982 0.616 -2.332 1950 4 8.778 -2.679 0 0 8.778 -2.679 7.643 -1.613 1950 5 14.167 -3.010 0 0 14.167 -3.010 13.811 -1.164 1950 6 20.278 -1.830 0 0 20.278 -1.830 19.085 -0.821 1950 7 23.444 -1.306 0 0 23.444 -1.306 21.547 -1.003 1950 8 22.611 -1.246 0 0 22.611 -1.246 20.845 -0.811 1950 9 17.944 -1.843 0 0 17.944 -1.843 15.896 -1.690 1950 10 15.333 1.825 0 0 15.333 1.825 12.718 1.411 1950 11 9.000 1.228 0 0 9.000 1.228 6.987 1.416 1950 12 1.944 0.568 0 0 1.944 0.568 -2.152 -1.326 1951 1 2.611 3.583 0 0 2.611 3.583 -0.819 2.354 1951 2 2.111 1.978 0 0 2.111 1.978 -0.542 1.526 1951 3 5.500 0.351 0 0 5.500 0.351 3.687 0.739 1951 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.890 0.634 1951 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.323 0.348 1951 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.137 -0.769 1951 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.296 -0.253 1951 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.046 -0.611 1951 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.218 -0.368 1951 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.299 0.991 1951 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.833 -1.739 1951 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.251 0.574 1952 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.664 2.509 1952 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.493 1.575 1952 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.610 -0.338
