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 1947 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.257 1.428 1947 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.710 0.279 1947 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.869 3.471 1947 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.438 -1.231 1947 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -5.478 -2.139 1948 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -8.960 -3.215 1948 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -7.344 -2.677 1948 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 0.585 0.003 1948 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.313 0.307 1948 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.946 -1.287 1948 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.560 -1.735 1948 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.253 0.266 1948 8 23.111 0.706 0 0 23.111 0.706 20.643 0.814 1948 9 18.833 0.825 0 0 18.833 0.825 15.938 0.507 1948 10 11.722 -0.252 0 0 11.722 -0.252 8.996 -0.402 1948 11 8.444 2.199 0 0 8.444 2.199 7.148 3.479 1948 12 0.444 1.207 0 0 0.444 1.207 -2.074 1.265 1949 1 1.333 4.501 0 0 1.333 4.501 -1.619 4.126 1949 2 0.389 2.479 0 0 0.389 2.479 -2.237 2.430 1949 3 3.056 -0.104 0 0 3.056 -0.104 1.740 1.158 1949 4 10.833 1.251 0 0 10.833 1.251 8.481 1.476 1949 5 16.167 0.357 0 0 16.167 0.357 13.679 0.446 1949 6 22.500 1.628 0 0 22.500 1.628 20.140 1.845 1949 7 25.444 1.880 0 0 25.444 1.880 22.871 1.884 1949 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.152 1.323 1949 9 17.389 -0.620 0 0 17.389 -0.620 14.481 -0.951 1949 10 14.833 2.859 0 0 14.833 2.859 11.688 2.290 1949 11 6.389 0.143 0 0 6.389 0.143 3.330 -0.339 1949 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -2.202 1.137 1950 1 0.889 4.057 0 0 0.889 4.057 -1.268 4.477 1950 2 -2.778 -0.687 0 0 -2.778 -0.687 -6.065 -1.398 1950 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -2.093 -2.676 1950 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.800 -1.206 1950 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.669 -0.564 1950 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.224 -0.071 1950 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.507 -0.481 1950 8 21.667 -0.739 0 0 21.667 -0.739 19.265 -0.564 1950 9 16.167 -1.842 0 0 16.167 -1.842 13.474 -1.958 1950 10 13.833 1.859 0 0 13.833 1.859 10.520 1.122 1950 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.997 2.328 1950 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -2.822 0.517 1951 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.070 2.675 1951 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -2.293 2.374 1951 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.481 0.898 1951 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.037 1.031 1951 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.460 0.227 1951 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.193 -1.102 1951 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.892 -0.095 1951 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.077 -0.752 1951 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.274 -0.158 1951 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.130 0.733
