% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 39 % Primary Name: AWS: BUTLER (8902) % Record Type: TAVG % Country: Antarctica % Latitude: -72.20000 +/- 0.05000 % Longitude: -60.30000 +/- 0.05000 % Elevation (m): 91.00 +/- 0.50 % # of Months: 17 % % IDs: wmssc - 899032 % % Sources: World Monthly Surface Station Climatology % % Site Hash: 346027bf263ded6f5833bfabdd4185f3 % Raw Data Hash: ed7192fb255c014b6f8eb9f2c3045e79 % Adj Data Hash: d82d11438a692b4106d770c65cdcafc4 % % 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 1985 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -17.656 0.281 1985 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -22.382 0.490 1985 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -24.261 0.488 1985 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -24.006 1.829 1985 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -24.137 2.344 1985 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -23.896 2.136 1985 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -20.651 2.723 1985 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -15.373 2.575 1985 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -11.079 0.606 1985 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -7.782 -1.140 1986 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -7.361 -1.314 1986 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -10.689 0.283 1986 3 -4.900 2.682 0 0 -4.900 2.682 -15.864 2.074 1986 4 -12.000 0.517 0 0 -12.000 0.517 -22.112 0.760 1986 5 -18.600 -4.207 0 0 -18.600 -4.207 -29.069 -4.319 1986 6 -18.600 -3.121 0 0 -18.600 -3.121 -29.045 -3.210 1986 7 -16.500 -0.375 0 0 -16.500 -0.375 -27.019 -0.538 1986 8 -20.000 -4.324 0 0 -20.000 -4.324 -29.765 -3.733 1986 9 -16.800 -3.781 0 0 -16.800 -3.781 -26.140 -2.765 1986 10 -7.700 -0.108 0 0 -7.700 -0.108 -17.846 0.102 1986 11 0.400 1.730 0 0 0.400 1.730 -11.159 0.527 1986 12 5.200 1.486 1 0 NaN NaN -6.864 -0.221 1987 1 6.100 1.791 1 0 NaN NaN -5.868 0.180 1987 2 -2.000 -1.384 0 0 -2.000 -1.384 -12.404 -1.432 1987 3 -7.700 -0.118 0 0 -7.700 -0.118 -18.262 -0.324 1987 4 -16.600 -4.083 0 0 -16.600 -4.083 -26.564 -3.691 1987 5 -15.700 -1.307 0 0 -15.700 -1.307 -25.467 -0.717 1987 6 -15.300 0.179 0 0 -15.300 0.179 -26.401 -0.565 1987 7 -19.900 -3.775 0 0 -19.900 -3.775 -30.126 -3.645 1987 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -22.812 3.220 1987 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -25.874 -2.499 1987 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -18.316 -0.368 1987 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -10.711 0.975 1987 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -6.700 -0.058 1988 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.646 1.401 1988 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -10.366 0.606 1988 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -17.756 0.182 1988 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -21.946 0.926 1988 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -23.458 1.292 1988 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -23.113 2.723 1988 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -24.516 1.965
